Zitat des Tages von Michelle MacLaren:
Would I like to do a feature? Absolutely.
I'm not surprised that I tend to go for the dark side. I was a really scared kid, so I think I understand what scares people.
My feeling is, from when I started on 'Breaking Bad,' there's no reason to pick and choose because every episode is great. Whatever episode you get, you're lucky to do it.
I will never leave television.
After I directed for the first time, I wanted to call every director I'd ever worked with and apologize. In television you are tasked with shooting 42 minutes, or whatever, in eight days. That's not a lot of time.
'Once Upon a Time in the West' is one of my favorite films.
I did every odd job you could possibly imagine: Holding a sign in the rain for 14 hours straight, sweeping up cigarette butts, pouring coffee, running around - anything I could to be on a film set. I wanted to be in the business. So I'd say, 'You need that job done? Fine,' and I became indispensable to people.
I always say that AMC hires filmmakers, and they let them be filmmakers.
In general, we like to shoot Breaking Bad like a modern day Western, and Sergio Leone is one of my all-time favorite directors.
I always say, 'I love producing, but directing is my passion,' and for a while, I had to produce to support my directing habit.
