etc aspect
I usually don't like to talk about money, but I talk about the movie, and the other aspects of directing, etc.
information different obstacles
The emotion, and the other aspect is that this relate to many different obstacle in life. Emotion, yes, I love emotion, for your information, very much so.
want way rooms
One of the things you have to understand with The Room, I never approached a studio to produce, because I know no one in Hollywood will produce this. I came to Hollywood and I said "I will produce this movie the way I want it."
uplifting cities san-francisco
I love San Francisco, and it offers spectacular scenery of the city, and it adds to the uplifting quality of the movie.
rocks honest rock-music
I like rock music. I also like classical, if you ask me. I'm very adaptable, they say that. But I have certain preference too, be honest.
couple hate purpose
I don't like, speaking about the movie, if I may say couple more words, I like a movie that doesn't drag too much, unless it's purpose. I like a movie with an action with a certain pace. If it's too monotone, I hate it. No, I don't hate it, I just don't like it, period.
couple names people
Any filmmaker, big directors, and I'm not dropping any names - I actually have couple names I want to say, but I will not - we have a ratio. Each thing you repeat, my ratio is one to four.Actually some people are ratio one to 34. I know couple directors, big directors, they are just shooting over and over.
country america world
In America we have across the country, the entire world.
passion years world
Millions of filmmakers would love to be in my position right now. If you are honest it makes the world a better place. I created the room with my passion and after all these years it finally worked out.
nice thinking keys
Think about who you are. Think about how nice you can be to another person. By the same token then, to have your own opinion about life, you as an individual, with respect. But I think that's what the key to success is.
background
My background is in psychology and I'm also a stage actor. That's my background.
discover maybe tiny
I always say that you don't have to like 'The Room', but you will discover something - maybe a tiny little thing - and say, 'Wait a minute, maybe I want to see more.'
job towards
As a filmmaker and an actor, my job is to react towards people, but I want a reaction from them.
When I was little kid, I used to want to be a rock star.
