I'd Seen Too Many Shrines

Being A Kid Growing Up With Kurosawa Films And Watching Sergio Leone Movies Just Made Me Love What It Could Do To You, And How It Could Influence You - Make You Dream.

Even The Westerns That I Grew Up With, The Sergio Leone's And All That, There Was Always A Sort Of Anti-hero, A Guy Reluctant To Shame Even, To Pick Up The Gun Again Because He Wants To Help Other People, And He Does, He Uses His Skills For That.

If You See Someone Lying Out Knives And Forks Consistently, But Then One Day Those Knives And Forks Become Weapons You're Not Sure If He Does That As A Warrior, That's Just His Thing.

Cinema Paradiso, Because It Reminds Me Of Why I Make Movies, The Magic Of Movies, The Romance Of Movies.

I'd Seen Too Many Shrines In South Central And Thought It Was Worth Asking Where The First Bullet Came From That Started All This Violence.
