You Can Never Replace Anyone

Maybe I Would Get The Chance To Be Financed For A Small Romantic Comedy, But A War Movie By A 28-year-old Woman About Japanese Soldiers? No One Was Going To Go For That. It's Easy To Just Steal An Idea Because It's Very Safe.

I Have A Few Other Films In My Life Where I'm Not Attached And For A Long Time It Was Too Complicated. Now It's Starting To Change Because Other Actresses Actually Want To Work With Me, Which Is Great.

I've Had This Opportunity To Get Some Of My Financing Out Of Europe, Which Has Helped Tremendously, So I'm Not Completely Dependent On The Studio System Or On U.s. Financing.

What's Funny Is That With My Comedies I Don't Believe They're My Best Screenplays Necessarily. They're Just The Ones That I Wrote That I Knew I Could Get Financing, You Know? I Believe My Other Films Could Be Better, But Right Now They're Not Being Made. But They Will Eventually.

I Went To Film School To Make Films Just Because You're In Control Of The Story.
