I'm Not Going To Experience

I Love The Grandiosity, How Sweepingly Entertaining Films Can Be. And I Think There's A Place For Films That Pry More Into The Human Condition.

Every Week A Tsunami Rips Through Poor Towns And Villages All Over The World. It Claims 25,000 Lives A Day, 175,000 A Week. It Sweeps Children From The Arms Of Their Mothers, Robs Hundreds Of Millions Of Any Hope For The Future. That Tsunami Is Hunger. Help Us End It Now.

Pain Seems To Be Easier, Or Melancholy Seems To Be Easier To Portray In A Character. I Don't Know If That's Because I'm A Human Being Or Because I'm An Irishman Or Both.

I Think That Is What You Want To Do As A Cinemagoer - To Experience Something Fully. Some Things Don't Let You Experience Them Fully. It May Be Your Own Preordained Prejudice Where You Can't Experience Them Fully. But When You Come Out Of The Cinema Having Felt, Thought, And Experienced Your Way Through Two Hours, That Is A Really Cool Thing.

If You Do A Fifteen Hour Day On A Film, There's A Lot Of Time Standing Around But At The End Of That, You Want To Go Home To Your Hotel Room And Have A Bite To Eat, Watch A Movie And Go To Bed.
