It's so funny when you're actually directing because things start popping that you don't expect to pop, and something that you think is going to pop, maybe doesn't quite have the impetus that you thought it might.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
With directing, you've got to find something and drag it up from its inception, and I'm at the early stages of doing that again. There's something all-consuming and addictive about that.
I know that when I'm writing, I always want to be directing.
I've acted just to get to directing.
Directing is a really kind of amazing thing, because you're helping others and, in the middle of that, you have to worry about yourself.
Being a doctor has taught me a lot about directing. You're doing the same thing: You're reconstructing the manifold of behavior to the point where an audience says, yes, that's exactly like people I know.
Directing is like meeting a woman. You don't know her, but something strikes you, and then you just have to go into it.
I find directing more satisfying.
Directing is: you're overwhelmed the whole time. Your mind never stops. If you care about it. You wake up in the morning and you begin thinking about it and then you go to sleep at night and you're still thinking about it.
Whenever I've directed something, there's this feeling of demand and focus that I like.
Directing is so interesting. You know, it just sort of encompasses everything that you see, that you know, that you've felt, that you have observed.
