When I got to filmmaking, the most democratic of environments where anybody could say anything, those were the best environments, but what you don`t want to assume is that you know what the audience is thinking.
What we see is what they`re trying to sell us. It`s not true nostalgic as much as it is repeating old material because it`s less expensive than new material.
Well, I took a sabbatical. I walked away from shooting movies because I couldn`t handle the travel. I`m a single parent. I had young kids, and I found that keeping in touch with them from hotel rooms and airports wasn`t working for me. So I stopped.
