Don't you hear people saying things you can't believe they're saying?
I don't want to tell your story because you're a insensitive, self-centered moron. I've told a lot of stories about young people, and I always feel there's hope.
I purposely did "8mm" because it was as far from a summer movie as you could get.
I was sadder for the actors than I was for me because when you do good work in this industry, you get more work. Colin got a whole career from it.
No, I don't feel we got screwed because we got such a great reception. People still rave about it all the time.
So they kept promo-ing these clips and a lot of awareness went up. Now, because of "The Recruit" and "Daredevil" - and Colin's slutting around! - he has a higher profile.
So we got there at 6 a.m. We'd be shooting by 6:45. We wouldn't break for lunch, we'd just pass food around all day. And we would just rock and roll 'til 4, then Matty Libatique, our great cinematographer, would say, "Outta light, guys" - and that was it.
Stu was kind of a Broadway Danny Rose character, but not sweet and charming. He was this brittled PR guy for theater.
The script was about 100 pages. I mean, we could have padded it if we wanted to. But I don't think that would make a better movie... .I mean, it's a guy in a phone booth.
This movie works, but it's pure luck.
This pretty young blonde girl was screaming at her boyfriend because he text-messaged her that they were going away for the weekend - and he had just told her he couldn't see her that weekend. He had text messaged the wrong girlfriend!
We deserved it. I mean, if you get a pummeling, you deserved it. But isn't it wonderful to remember a time that America was once so innocent that all we had to worry about was the next "Batman" movie?
