I made two movies before The Police had a hit record: I did Quadrophenia and a film called Radio On.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've been trying to do films for years. So I've decided to wait until the next good part comes along and develop a record on my own in the meantime.
See, 'A Time to Kill' was the one I got famous off of. Big ka-boom, over one weekend. After that, I did films that I really wanted to do.
How can I make a movie about the violence of the police if the police aren't going to let me film it?
I had four films one year that were supposed to happen and didn't.
I did important films when I was very young.
I've done a lot of TV, but not film.
My friends and I make short films. We pretended to rob the Dairy Queen where our friend worked, but someone thought we were real thieves and called the cops! Soon, the cops burst in with guns drawn!
In my early days, I didn't know what a good film or a bad film was, and I was trying to make some money. As it happens I was lucky. I made some good films.
I shot a couple of movies in jail, but I was never in jail.
I think The Police made five great records and then called it a day. They went out on top.
