You have to be so over-prepared that you can cope with anything.

Film, for me, is in two stages. One is when I write the script more or less on my own – that’s the nice bit. And then comes for me the unpleasant bit when they all go off, 100 people – actors and camera people and film and sound – and I stay away. When they go into the editing room, I come in again, and that’s the bit I like.

My father was an aspiring country singer and songwriter. He just didn’t get that off that ground. I was afraid, very tentative to do anything with music for years.
