More quotes by John Michael McDonagh
I had a bad experience on Ned Kelly, which I'd written the screenplay for. I thought: Well Jesus, if these are the type of people directing movies I might as well direct one myself!
John Michael McDonagh
Eventually, in the editing movie you have to look at it as if you hadn't written it. So, you have to be a bit more brutal.
John Michael McDonagh
When you've written a script, if an actor has a question you're the writer as well as the director, so you have the answer. And if you don't, then you just be honest and say 'I don't know' and then you discuss it. So, working with the actors is fine.
