I don't know if there is someone for everyone. Every person is so different and I don't think there is an exact match for every person. If you meet someone and they have 20 of the 25 things you want in a person, then you're pretty lucky. ↗

I don't 'handle' people. It's so much easier to manipulate actors than to really have an earnest discussion with them. It's very easy to say whatever's going to appease them and then turn around and do whatever you want to do.

That's the way I will write characters, put a fair amount of myself in them, and then everyone else who was like that person, I will pick and choose. ↗

What I do when I create a character is put in details from all the people I know who might be like that person, and then put in a huge amount of myself. ↗

As soon as you think you can do whatever you want and you have whatever great professional in the world waiting to work with you, then you are sunk. ↗

I know there are going to be big challenges financially, but I'm excited artistically. I think that if the experience is better artistically, then we have more hope in the future. ↗
