“Lester del Rey told me repeatedly that the first and most important part of writing fiction is just to think about the story. Don't write anything down. Don't try to pull anything together right away. Just dream for a while and see what happens. There isn't any timetable involved, no measuring stick for how long it ought to take.

“What I like about Layer Cake is its intelligent through-line. First of all, I think it's very close to the truth; I think this is what successful drug dealers are like. They don't drive around in flashy cars, they don't show off, they behave very quietly, they get on with their job and they earn lots of money. And it goes up and up and up and up the scale. Secondly - and selfishly - I like the moral aspect of the movie, which is that violence has consequences, and you feel emotionally involved with the violence.” ThinkingFeelsFirstsShowsJobsLinesMoralSuccessfulViolenceCarInvolvedDrugConsequenceAspectIntelligentScalesBehaveCakeLayersLots Of MoneyDealerShowing OffDrug DealersFlashyFlashy Cars Author:Daniel Craig
