Every Scene Should Be Able

Storytelling Is Like Sex. We All Do It Naturally. Some Of Us Are Better At It Than Others.

A Good Film Script Should Be Able To Do Completely Without Dialogue.

Being Among My People Is A Delight. We Jews Live Among Ourselves. I Love It.

The Main Question In Drama, The Way I Was Taught, Is Always, 'what Does The Protagonist Want?' That's What Drama Is. It Comes Down To That. It's Not About Theme, It's Not About Ideas, It's Not About Setting, But What The Protagonist Wants.

If The Scene Bores You When You Read It, Rest Assured It Will Bore The Actors, And Will Then Bore The Audience, And We're All Going To Be Back In The Breadline.
