I don't believe making a movie accessible means you have to dumb them down.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You have to get the audience invested even if you're doing something that they think is dumb, it's kind of what these movies are all about.
I definitely feel sorry more people don't get to see my films. They aren't inaccessible, and if people got the chance to see them, I know they'd like them.
When I'm in the middle of making a movie, I have blinders on; it's all about just getting the movie out.
Sometimes we misunderstand what films can do. We just throw a whole book in there, with people just talking, talking, and talking. The picture can tell, the frame can tell.
When you make a movie, you can only make the movie that you would want to see.
I'm of the opinion that the technology is in a place where there's really no excuse not to just make your movie.
I know that if a film is ready to emerge out of what I write, I'll be able to go off and make it without asking anyone's permission.
Once you know how to make a movie, you can't not make a movie.
It's actually smarter to make a dumb film.
The entire process of making a movie is sort of blind trust because, otherwise, all of it just doesn't make any sense: the fact that we can create any sense of reality or emotion given the arbitrariness of a day.
