“I can pick up a screenplay and flip through the pages. If all I see is dialog, dialog, dialog, I won't even read it. I don't care how good the dialog is - it's a moving picture.

The writer is the most important element in the entire film because if it ain't on the page it ain't going to be on the screen.”

What I'm looking for is the spirit of the movie, the beat that the movie will play with.”
