I like to work, and I worked for years as a camera person before I directed.
I do care about success and all of those things. But I don't care enough to do movies just for that reason.
Longevity of focus, I think, is the hardest part. You know it's to have a vision and then try to hold that vision and not have it change.
There's the 7-year-old me that pretended to be Wonder Woman running around the schoolyard. Like, what an incredible thing to imagine that when the bully shows up or the villain, you would be strong enough to do something about it. But, also, you look like Lynda Carter while you're doing it - like, 'Oh, my God.'
