As I get on and films take four years to complete, I tend to have a hankering for very short projects so you can move on to the next idea. It's the ideas I'm interested in. What comes out of your head.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't have a drawer full of ideas. I kind of look around and take notes and wonder what could actually be a whole movie. And each time, I think I'm going to do it more commercial this time; I'm going to get a big budget and make it. But I always come up with some small idea.
You finish a project and start looking for something that might interest you. A lot of the films I've made are a reaction to something I've done right before.
There are MAYBE 30 years worth of ideas out there... watch for the feature version of ER in about 25 years... Hollywood has become hopelessly chained to the bottom line.
One day I had an idea for a movie. Everything came after that.
As Hollywood knows, I'm full of ideas.
There's the concept that if I do this big budget project, then that will help me do the things I really want to do and bring more money to those films.
The truth about filmmaking is you have all these ideas and you're trying to convince everybody that they should buy into this idea, but at two o'clock in the morning when you're all on your own you're going, 'Geez, I hope I know what I'm doing. I hope this idea is gonna work.'
I'd love to have another film to go on to. I'm in the mood to work. But I have to be patient, you know, to find that particular kind of project. Occasionally I'll write one myself if I can summon up the energy.
I hope to do films. Right now I'm just doing projects that are interesting.
For me, I get a part of an idea here and a little bit of an idea there, and then finally it accumulates into a movie.
