The Truth Of A Thing

Shooting A Movie Is The Worst Milieu For Creative Work Ever Devised By Man.

You Have Not Yet Learned That In This Life You Have To Be Like Everyone Else: The Perfect Mediocrity--no Better, No Worse. Individuality Is A Monster And It Must Be Strangled In Its Cradle To Make Our Friends Feel Comfortable.

From The Very Beginning, All Of My Films Have Divided The Critics. Some Have Thought Them Wonderful, And Others Have Found Very Little Good To Say. But Subsequent Critical Opinion Has Always Resulted In A Very Remarkable Shift To The Favorable. In One Instance, The Same Critic Who Originally Rapped The Film Has Several Years Later Put It On An All-time Best List. But Of Course, The Lasting And Ultimately Most Important Reputation Of A Film Is Not Based On Reviews, But On What, If Anything, People Say About It Over The Years, And On How Much Affection For It They Have.

I'm A Slave To My Imagination In Terms Of Making Narrative Films.

Like The Man Said, Can Happiness Buy Money?
