I'm not a cinematic cinematic person. I go to the movies like I did back when I was a kid. I go to the movies and I sit down. If the music works, hmm. If it doesn't work, hmm. The whole concept of the thing, not as one piece here or there. For me, music is a large part.

Normally, you have all this knowledge from all the films that you've done that you've accumulated over the years, and you can constantly look back when you're in some sort of fix and say, "Well, on so-and-so film, we did this, and it worked out fine." You can point to these things, and you can have that assurance.

Zooming in, zooming out. I was shocked. I said, "Let's erase this right now, put the camera behind the stage and I'll do the performance just for the camera."
