“I think the movie business and film crews are a little bit like the circus, in that we travel around like a pack and we're a big family for a finite period of time.

“There is a sort of creative purity in an independent film, in the passion of the director, the passion of the crew. They're not getting a whole lot of money, so you know they are not there because they want to get rich. Instead, they are there because they want to make a movie. In the bigger films, I remember when I used to do those, it's just a job for a lot of people, so there is less of an intense energy devoted to the whole project.” PeopleKnowsWantWholeJobsRememberFilmUsedPassionEnergyCreativeRichDirectorsProjectsBiggerIndependentIntensePurityDevotedLots Of MoneyCrewRemember WhenGet RichIndependent FilmPassion And Purity Author:Amy Irving
“It's not hard to understand why an accomplished director like Gus Van Sant (whose most recent success, Good Will Hunting, gave him mainstream clout) would be interested in making this film. The lure of an exact remake presents a tremendous challenge. Unfortunately, it was undoubtedly a lot more stimulating for Van Sant and his crew to make Psycho than it is for an audience to watch it. Curiosity is going to be one of the primary reasons why people pay money to see this movie; boredom will be the predominant result.” PeopleHardReasonWould BeFilmChallengesResultsPayWatchesAudienceDirectorsPrimariesReason WhyBoredomAccomplishedHuntingMainstreamCrewVansGood WillLureRemakesPsychoCloutGusWill Hunting Author:James Berardinelli

“Instead of the 1997 film directed, written, by James Cameron with Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet, Billy Zane creating a love story and a large diamond with a beautiful song “My Heart Will Go On” sung by Celine Dion.
