There's this inherent screenplay structure that everyone seems to be stuck on, this three-act thing. It doesn't really interest me. To me, it's kind of like saying, 'Well, when you do a painting, you always need to have sky here, the person here and the ground here.' Well, you don't. ↗

When we could split the screen, it was like 'Wow!'. ↗

It's always tense when you move a character from a book to the screen. Always tense. ↗

A woman came up to me after one of the screenings with tears pouring down her face and sobbed, You've defined my entire life for me on the screen. ↗
