I’ve read a hundred fantastic scripts that didn’t pan out as films, and I completely put that on the directors.

If you don’t have a good storyteller, you really have nothing Picture Quote #1

I love watching Marty Scorsese’s films, but they always make me feel terrible about being a man Picture Quote #1

Hollywood usually doesn’t have strong woman in films like that, and it’s stupid, so for the most part they’re usually being directed and written by men Picture Quote #1

Sometimes miraculous films come into being, made by people you’ve never heard of, starring unknown faces, blindsiding you with creative genius Picture Quote #1

I’ve never had any illusions about being a lead actor in films, because lead actors have to be of a certain kind Picture Quote #1

People read a lot of stories about witches, fairies, paranormals, and children possessed by evil spirits. They go to films showing rituals featuring pentagrams, swords, and invocations.
