It's all just one film to me. Just different chapters.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I tend to favour films that have multiple plot and story lines, multiple characters and ensemble pieces.
I'm all for whatever transitions the book properly to a movie.
Another thing that really excites me: I'd like to do multiple versions of the same film.
When you get into a film, it is one story and one set development of a character, and you are able to delve into one character for a short period of time and discover everything about them.
I always wanted to do something different with each film. So I guess that means that I wanted to not repeat myself. There has to be some kind of a new element in each project that I take up.
Each film and each character is a completely new set of challenges. It doesn't feel like you can rest on something you may have done well in the past.
I've done many different movies in many different contexts.
I don't see a lot of films. I'm quite choosy, but there's certain films that stick out.
I think there are way too many films made, and I've probably made way too many films.
I think one of the blessings that I've had in watching, you know, films be made now from four of my books is to realize that it's a separate thing. It's a separate work.
