I think as a director you have to make it your own. It'd be a mistake to approach a project with the idea of 'I'm going to do this the way I think somebody else would,' because then you'd never be clear on your idea.
Once you've made a record, you don't need to make it again. It's done, and it's out there forever, a moment in time that encapsulates whatever was happening in that moment.
You hate to see yourself do one draft of a script and then have somebody else come back in and change what you've done.
I don't even have an agent or manager, but rather have a number of associates who I turn to when needed; or conversely when they hear of someone looking for me they'll contact me.
You must learn from the mistakes of others. You can't possibly live long enough to make them all yourself.
The higher up you go, the more mistakes you are allowed. Right at the top, if you make enough of them, it's considered to be your style.
There's something about shadows because you make your own mind up about what's lurking in them.
I think to adequately manage a crisis, you have to see it. Because there's only so much somebody else can tell you about it, and they impose their own distortions on the description. You need to see it yourself.
If you can't laugh at your own characters, or shed a tear for them, or even get angry at one of them, no one else will either.
