The point (part 2)

Why I love making movies... Everyday that I make movies is a day that I don't have to be a security guard in downtown Seattle, finding junkies overdosed in the bathroom. Everyday that I make movies is a day that I don't have to clean up chlorine in an unventalated room and change dirty sheets in a motel that streams porno in all the rooms and charges by the hour. Everyday that I make movies is a day that I don't have to lift boxes of useless stuff, wait on rich people that want me to please them, sell tools for minimum wage, or put up with a bunch of bullshit paperwork that covers the collective asses of the obsenley rich people I work for. Everyday that I make a movie is a day that I start with zero... Just an idea in my head, and some friends to help, and I end up with something that can hopefully make someone think, or make someone happy, or make someone relate, or something that is beautiful. If I start a day with nothing and I end that day with one more small thing, then it was a great day...

PS here is a quote from Alfonso Cuaron "The only reason you make a movie is not to make or set out to do a good or a bad movie, it's just to see what you learn for the next one." Thank god someone else thinks that...
