feelings mind audience
I like to get the audiences cozy in their seats, feeling safe, and suddenly they'll be shocked out of their minds.
acting able aspect
I love just about every aspect of the filmmaking except acting. I would never be able to do that, but the rest I really enjoy.
inspired remakes knows
I'm inspired when I find out about something that I didn't know was a remake.
over-you directors shoulders
When you're a director you always feel weird with another director watching over your shoulder.
exposes goes roller watching
In 'Clockwork Orange,' you're there with your eyes, watching all those things, your brain goes off, ahh, exposes you to so many things, and at the end of the day, it's just like a roller coaster. Why do you jump in a roller coaster? You want a thrill.
recreate
I have my pride. I'm a director. I'm not going to go and recreate some other director's vision.
best demanding job pressure time work
I'm pretty demanding with myself and my work, and I always put a lot of pressure on myself. I try to do the best job I can every time.
directors geniuses realized wants worried
I thought that Hollywood was just for geniuses and that directors come from three generations of directors. I was worried that I was not up to the challenge of making a movie. Then realized that all a director has to do is know what he wants to do.
shocks
It doesn't matter the amount of gore, the amount of shocks that you can have in a movie if the movie's not entertaining, if the story's not entertaining.
