Films always make everyone else rich save the author.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Anyone who's putting money into your movie would always rather you cast well-known people.
What people forget is that every movie that gets made keeps making money for somebody FOREVER.
You don't do an experimental film to become rich, so the people who are involved are involved because they enjoy the creative aspect of it.
The thing that's protected me creatively is that the movies have made profits.
Most actors are not rich - they are very poor indeed. What keeps them going is that they just love the job.
When you are making an independent film, money is never an issue.
It's very important that every movie I do makes money because I want the people that had the faith in me to get their money back.
Sometimes the nature of a big movie, the nature of the material, the scene doesn't have the richness that you'd want it to.
People have given their lives to this industry to make movies compelling.
I steal from every movie ever made.
