Hollywood Is Great. I Also

It's A Bad Day When You Don't Get The Work Done That You Need To Get Done Or You Don't Get It Done To The Satisfaction.

Entertainment Has To Come Hand In Hand With A Little Bit Of Medicine. Some People Go To The Movies To Be Reminded That Everything's Okay. I Don't Make Those Kinds Of Movies. That, To Me, Is A Lie. Everything's Not Okay.

You Can’t Take Everything On. That’s Why When People Ask How Does This Film Fit Into My Oeuvre. I Say 'i Don’t Know. I Don’t Think In Those Terms’. If I Did, I Might Become Incapacitated By Fear . . . How Do You Eat A Whale? One Bite At A Time. How Do You Shoot A 150-day Movie? You Shoot It One Day At A Time.

The Thing Is, That Great Actors Are Everywhere. They're Everywhere. They're Doing Good Parts On Television. They're Doing Television Commercials. They're Doing Local Theater. There Are So Few Opportunities.
