It's never a script that makes me decide to accept a film or not.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I wanted to do a film for a while, but I never found a script that I felt I was going to be the right person for; because if you've never made a film, you're not taught how to make a film, and you feel like you lack skills.
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.
I'm not accustomed to doing films without seeing the script.
For me, the script is important. If it excites me, I'll do the film.
Well, there's no question that a good script is an absolutely essential, maybe the essential thing for a movie.
Scripts don't get movies made.
Any film I do needs to excite me at a script level.
A horrible script 99 percent of the time means a horrible movie. But if you start with a good script, odds are you're going to have a good movie.
No other aspect of filmmaking has tempted me to do a film other than the script and the story itself.
If I read a script and I like it, there's nothing that will stop me from trying to be in that movie.
