The Power Of The Individual

My Job Has Always Been To Hold A Mirror Up To Nature.

Directing Is A Constant Test Of Your Communicative Powers. You're Constantly Trying To Explain People Your Vision Of What You Want And Steer These Tiny Little Details Into A Cohesive Thing.

If There Are Nine Guys Auditioning And They're All Gorgeous, I Have An Advantage, Because Gorgeous Guys Are A Dime A Dozen. But If They Need Someone Else - Like A Goofy Guy With Bad Hair Who Is Just Okay - Then That's Me. And Finally, The Other 2 Percent Who Audition Are Geniuses That I Could Never Touch.

The Nature Of The Movies Is Different Than It Was Five Years Ago, And They're All Driven By The Possibilities Of Cgi, Which Means You Can Make Anything Happen On Screen That You Can Possibly Desire.

I Try Not To Lie To People - The Only Way To Control The Way You're Perceived Is To Tell The Truth.
