But it's mostly about pacing yourself when you do these movies.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
On an independent film, you really learn about pace. You have so little time to do things, that you really have to know your scenes.
With all my films, the pace is not very fast, and so people get bored with them and comment that they're just people talking in rooms and all that.
And film acting is incredibly tedious, just by its nature. It's incredibly, mind numbingly slow.
Everybody knows that I am not usually patient enough to actually sit down and watch one of my own films from the beginning to the end - I never do.
Film can be exciting, but more often, it's tedious.
Some movies get rushed out right after you make them and I'm not always happy with that.
Usually a lot of moviemaking is boring.
Making movies is time-consuming and it's boring. You spend most of your time waiting between takes. It's like a big machine that moves slowly.
When you're making a film all by yourself, that requires you to have quite a bit of a point of view in order for anything to get done.
Inherently, making a movie is tough because there's so much anticipation when it happens - even if everything goes well.
