I Never Made A Daring

I Think Distribution Has Become A Lot Harder. With The Whole Explosion Of Digital Video, There's Just A Lot More People Making Films. Distributors Have A Lot More Choice. I Do Think There's An Audience Out There For Small Films. It's Obvious To Me What The Studios Do: They've Co-opted Independent Film. They All Have Their Independent Arm. They Can Afford To Crush The Competition.

I Was Very Surprised That For A While I Could Only Get Cast As Straight. It Was That Way For A Few Years.
