David Simon Zitate

The trick to making a story matter is that every now and then, somebody you care about has to go. If it's somebody that you don't care about, then it doesn't really have - the stakes aren't there. But if you do that every now and then, then the story matters to people. And there are actual stakes involved, emotional stakes.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Der Trick, aus dem eine Geschichte eine Rolle spielt, besteht darin, dass ab und zu jemand, den Sie interessieren, mitgehen muss. Wenn es jemanden interessiert, den Sie nicht interessieren, dann hat es nicht wirklich - die Einsätze sind nicht da. Aber wenn Sie das ab und zu tun, ist die Geschichte für die Menschen von Bedeutung. Und es gibt tatsächliche Einsätze, emotionale Einsätze.

If somebody ever says something is a mature theme, it's bound to not be. I mean, you shouldn't fall for that. You can make it sound mature, but anything that's about being mature is pretty immature.

I don't like to just talk about nothing, or less than nothing. If it's something interesting, I'm fine with it, but, 'Hey, Zack, how is your day?' People ask that, and somebody actually tells them what happened in their day? I don't have any real interest in that.

I'm a tek addict myself. No matter where you are, people are looking for something to tear them away from reality, challenge their state of mind.

Since my adaptation of Ian McEwan's 'Atonement,' I get sent a lot of novels that people think will work as movies. So every now and then I make a point of sitting down and reading a couple of them.
