So bad I deserved to die like that? Is what I did really much worse than what anybody else does? Is it really so much worse than what you do? ~Lauren Oliver

My filmmaking education consisted of finding out what filmmakers I liked were watching, then seeing those films. I learned the technical stuff from books and magazines, and with the new technology you can watch entire movies accompanied by audio commentary from the director.

Film school is a complete con, because the information is there if you want it. ~Paul Thomas Anderson
