“To film act, you’re a sprinter. And to get behind a camera, you don’t become a long distance runner; you become a sherpa, or a glorified janitor, in the end. You’ve got the whole world on your back and if the film succeeds, everyone will jump out and take credit for it. And if the film doesn’t succeed, you’ll get all the credit for it. It’s a position that you better be secure in, because if you’re looking for recognition, you’re going to be sorely disappointed.”
