“Making a film is like making a mixtape. You're collecting all this stuff and putting your favorite stuff into it: you have actors that you like, characters that you're interested in, moments you want to explore, themes you want to deal with, music that you want to put in. It's a pastiche of all these things that deal with how you see the world. You're just trying to make a love letter, a gift.” WorldWantTryingMomentsCharacterFilmActorsStuffDealsLettersThemeCollectingYour FavoriteLove LetterMixtapesPastiche Author:Derek Cianfrance
“I tell the actors that the biggest gift they can give me is to fail. And that the second gift they can give me is to surprise me.” GivingActorsFailingGive MeSurpriseSurprise Me Author:Derek Cianfrance
