And I liked that whole idea that energy comes from not disseminating your ideas and talking about them.
I have a desire to work with some actors I really like, so I hope to get out there soon and be back at it - maybe a little less music in the next one.
I loved the guys that kind of slyly said within the frames of their movie, "Hey, man, I love music and I love film and sometimes I marry 'em both in a great way".
In the future, everybody is going to be a director. Somebody's got to live a real life so we have something to make a movie about.
It's more like can I build a group of characters and can I tell some universal truths that feel real and aren't formulaic in the spirit of filmmakers gone by who've told American stories that were personal and universal as well.
People dance and we have a lot of music and... this might be the closet I get for a while.
Probably having fallen in love with music and movies at a young age and then first learning about writing by kind of following the path of writers like Dave Marsh and Lester Bangs and being a rock journalist.
This is how I start, you know, I say no music in the next one and then I go and hear something on the way home and go, "Whoa, maybe a little bit of music".
Well all kinds of movies that you wouldn't expect that I'd want to do, both bigger scale and smaller scale than the ones I've done.
Well it kind of is project to project because as a writer I think you always write to some degree about things that you know or things that happened - but my favourite filmmakers, my favourite movies of theirs tend to be the personal movies.
