“For me, when I see movies where I kind of know who the characters are and what the situation is, I get bored. To me, it's, "How do I tell a story that will keep the audience engaged?" A great story does that: it's not exactly what you expect.” KnowsKindDoeCharacterStoriesSituationAudienceBoredEngaged Author:Richard Shepard
“We're all so jaded. We've seen so many movies. We know what's going to happen in every single movie. I mean, there are some movies where I'm like why do I even need to keep watching? And so, if you can make a movie in which you're completely surprising the audience left and right, and left and right, then you've won. If a jaded film critic or reporter or an audience is like, "I didn't see that one coming," that to me is like a victory.” IfsKnowsNeedsMeanHappensFilmLeftAudienceVictoryCriticsSurprisingReportersJadedLeft And RightFilm Critics Author:Richard Shepard
