I Think People Tend To

Part Of The Advantage, And Part Of The Result Of Trying To Be A Producer And Director, Are The Practical Things, You Find. It's So Advantageous To Go To A Place That You Already Have A Feel For, A Literal And Spiritual Familiarity.

I Had Been To New Mexico Many Times. I Loved It. It's A Very Exotic, Interesting, Severely Crazy Environment. I Don't Know If I Could Live There All Year. It's Such An Intense Place.

Most Of The Time For Me, You're Learning What Not To Do, As Opposed To What To Do. You Never Know What To Do. I Don't, Especially In A Work Environment. You Have A Little Formula Yourself. But When I See A Director Do Something I Think, Whatever He Or She Just Said Totally Screwed That Actor Up And Now They're Worse. I'm Never Going To Do That. I'm Going To Figure Out Something Else. I Want My Movie To Be Good. And That's How It Works.

I'm 47, I Have Gray Hair, And Yet People Still Come Up To Me On The Street Who Are In Their Twenties, Who Weren't Even Born When 'singles' Was Made... Well, They Were Pretty Tiny, Anyway... And They Say, 'oh, I Love That Movie.' And I Always Say, 'how Old Are You?'
