I think with any movie, the more you know, it loses some of its power.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I may be alone in this, but I do sense the power of film, in that movies have the ability to literally change people's minds. That's pretty powerful stuff when you consider that.
I've seen too many ups and downs in the movie industry.
You've got to believe as a filmmaker that if a movie's good enough, it's going to survive; and if it's not, well, it won't.
You never know how films are going to do and it is daunting if I think about it.
Really, it's the director's job to disappear and allow the movie to just feel.
Sometimes Hollywood manages to knock a movie in its teeth so hard that it never manages to get back up.
I think every movie changes me and is life changing, especially movies you direct.
At the end of the day, it is about working in a good film. It's the films that you leave behind that matter.
I think when any one kind of film does well, it creates a precedent and paves the way for more like it.
Movies have an enormous power to open the mind and the heart and everything.
