Movies are not about the weekend that they’re released, and in the grand scheme of things, that’s probably the most unimportant time of a film’s life.
I’m not a Hollywood basher because enough good movies come out of the Hollywood system every year to justify its existence, without any apologies.
Over the years all these vampire movies have come out and nobody looks like a vampire anymore.
There’s a lot of great movies that have won the Academy Award, and a lot of great movies that haven’t. You just do the best you can.

Some of my foster families used to send me to the movies to get me out of the house and there I’d sit all day and way into the night.
