The way I like to describe Hollywood today is this: everyone wants to make 'Deliverance,' but no one wants to be Ned Beatty.
I love films like 'Deliverance' where you can watch it over and over again and decode all of its many different meanings.
Oh my God, you look at all the uniforms in Star Wars, and it's all Nazi iconography.
What makes a movie now is a package, a brand, a remake or some preexisting material.
I've rewritten other films and watched my writing be mutilated, but luckily, it's been mutilated anonymously.
