I would consider doing any part as long as the script is good and the film has an interesting director.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's interesting going between small parts and then bigger roles where you carry the film. If the writing is good, and if the people involved have integrity, then you'll do it, even if it's only five minutes on screen.
I don't see how it's a risky thing to take a great part with a great director and a great script. That, to me, is not really a dangerous, risky proposition. It's actually a really good choice.
I think the first thing I consider is whether I like the script. Once that is done, the next thing I look for is my part in the movie. Many a times you come across good offers, but the part they are offering might not be challenging. So, I don't take up that film.
No other aspect of filmmaking has tempted me to do a film other than the script and the story itself.
If the script is good, the cast and director good, I'll go anywhere.
If it's a good part in a good movie, I'll do it.
I think the script is the key. Regardless of how great everybody else is working on a film, if you're working on a script that you don't think is great, you're not gonna be able to make a great film. Whereas if the script is great, then you can.
I have always thought if you are going to make a film, it's much better to have an original script that will play to film's strengths.
If the story's interesting and it's a compelling script, I'd be thrilled to be a part of it.
For me, the script is important. If it excites me, I'll do the film.
