I've Always Approached Screenplays And

Adult Movies With Any Artistic Credit Are Released In The Last Quarter Of The Year And Expected To Gird For Battle For Globes And Oscars. So The Films Aren't Being Seen Just For Themselves, But Rather In A Competitive Context.

My Editor And I Remain Very Disciplined. It's Just Sometimes When You're Making A Film, You Get Into The Cutting Room And You See A Scene That's Slowing You Down In A Certain Section, But If You Remove That Scene Then, Emotionally Or Story-wise, Another Scene A Half-hour Later Won't Have The Same Impact. You Just Get Stuck With It.

Acting Is A Lot Easier Than People Think It Is.

Hollywood Films Have Become A Cesspool Of Formula And It's Up To Us To Try To Change It... I Feel Like A Preacher! But It's Really True. I Feel Personally Responsible For The Future Of American Cinema. Me Personally.

I'd Love To Be A Director-for-hire And Get A Nice Paycheck And Captain One Of Those Big Ships, But I Think Studios Mistakenly Think I Want To Write What I Direct - Which I Don't. I Write Out Of Desperation, Because I Never Get A Script I Like, Other Than "nebraska." It's A Matter Of: What's The Screenplay? Is It Intelligent? Is It Human? I Don't Care What Genre, What Scale. I'm Here For The Movies.
