Zitat des Tages von Valerie Faris:
Some scripts you feel like everything is precious.
There's something about somebody's first screenplay: it's like their whole life experience has kind of been bottled into it. They bring so much richness to it. And not that they won't do that for their next script, but there is something about their first experience and the time that it's been floating in their head.
There's an amazing movie called 'Los Angeles Plays Itself.'
I love small films, and I love films being seen in a theater. I love film, and unfortunately, that's being phased out.
I think of music videos as commercials for songs.
Comedy writing is the hardest, and yet there's so much that's relatable in it.
We had a couple of films that, in the course of working on them, the budget shrank to the point where we couldn't make it. They literally ran the numbers: They took our numbers and the stars' numbers, and when they calculated whether we could make our money back or not, it said no.
If we don't have the actors, or you get the sense that some of the other people involved in making the movie don't necessarily see the movie the way you see it - all those elements, for us, we like having those things feel like they're moving in the same direction.
