I'd read so much right-wing crime fiction where they find the evidence and shoot the bad guy - I thought there must be another approach.
I don't shoot guns. I don't know how to do that. I grew Upstate New York, so I fought with my fists.
You can hear my dreams? God, you must never get any quiet. I'd be shooting myself in the head if I were you.
I do like the whole idea of going to a location to shoot a movie, and there is a start date and a finish date, and a lot of special things happen within those weeks.
Prior to being mugged I did not feel I had to carry a gun. However, I knew how to shoot a gun very proficiently. As a boy, I used to play cowboys and Indians all the time.
I have real TV studios. If I have an idea, I can go shoot it. I can experiment. If I choose to air it or not, it's at my discretion. I don't have to do it to somebody else's time frame.
If you wait until the right time to have a child you'll die childless, and I think film making is very much the same thing. You just have to take the plunge and just start shooting something even if it's bad.
I've heard that Alfred Hitchcock said that by the time he was ready to shoot a film, he didn't even want to do it any more because he'd already had all of the fun of working it out. It's the same thing with these Frank comics.
Each film is different. Time Code was very quick - a matter of months. Miss Julie has been on my shelf as a script for some seven or eight years. But then the shooting process was very quick - 16 days.
Of course, with the increasing number of aeroplanes one gains increased opportunities for shooting down one's enemies, but at the same time, the possibility of being shot down one's self increases.
Mini-series are my favorite medium to act in because it's the right amount of pages you shoot a day, it's the right amount of time that you're with a character, and they really advertise it a lot so that people get excited for this epic event.
The first time I heard of suicidegirls was when a model from there contacted me to see if I wanted to do a shoot. I can't remember what happened with that but we didn't end up doing it.
My game is based on improvisation. Often, a forward does not have the time to think too much. You have a second, rarely more, to decide whether to dribble, shoot or pass to the right or left. It is instinct that gives the orders.
I remember doing a little student film where we had a guy that couldn't pull focus. We ended up spending three times the amount of time shooting this thing as opposed to if the guy could've just pulled focus.
[after driving his car into a large crate, and getting caught in the car] Mr. French: Ah, fuck it. [Shoots himself, the car explodes]
Madolyn: [about an odd-looking dessert] I'm waiting for you to make your move. Colin Sullivan: I don't know, if that thing moves I'm gonna shoot it.
El Indio: When the chimes end, pick up your gun. Try and shoot me, Colonel. Just try.
Archie: You're going to shoot me? Otto: [in a pompous, English accent] Yep, 'fraid so, ol' chap! Sorry!
Paul Cicero: Tommy's a bad seed. What am I supposed to do? Shoot him? Copa Captain: That wouldn't' be a bad idea.
[choked up about Rhett and Scarlett] Mammy: He went out and shot that poor pony, and, for a minute, I thought he was gonna shoot himself.
Phil Wenneck: [after realizing that they have rescued the wrong Doug] GOD DAMN IT! Alan Garner: Gosh darn it! Phil Wenneck: SHIT! Alan Garner: Shoot!
