You get to actually make your movie. As a filmmaker, that's the dream. That's why you get up in the morning, to be able to do that. You feel constrained sometimes, but if the movie makes sense in the budget realm, then it isn't hard.

I always talk about movies a lot beforehand, and then we would get there, and I'd say, Let's play around and see how it goes. And they would do it, and I'd go, Well, that was awesome. It was really - I don't know, it was really special to watch them.

It's one of those things, when you look back on it, you'd go, Oh, I could've done without that. If I could go back in time, I would do it different. That's the thing with violence in general.

I found Jumpy on YouTube. I wrote a movie about a guy with a dog and was like, What have I done? This is going to be a nightmare. We're a small movie and we're never going to be able to do this.

I mean PJ - James Ransone - he was a friend of mine, he probably heard all this stuff, but for the rest of the cast [Valley of Violence], we mostly just talked about their characters and things like that. That was the business at hand.

[Valley of Violence] was written for James Ransone. PJ's a friend of mine, I've known him for a long time, he's always like, Dude, when are we going to make a movie together? I finally called him.

It's funny, because I don't think of my films as slow-burn. I don't even know if I was familiar with the phrase until people started labeling me with it.

That's what's interesting about people. It can be funny, but when [John] Travolta got there and did [comic moments] you're like, Oh! This is really funny. Or when Karen [Gillan] and Taissa [Farmiga] do something, I'm like, This came out so much funnier.

It's not the plot [of Valley of Violence] - the plot is the reason to get all these things to happen, all these character moments to happen. It was always meant to have these two perspectives.

If you ever see the director pulling people aside, that means something's not working. Because you're trying to figure out why it's not working. But we would show up, we would talk about it.

If people don't like [my film], the ship's sailed. There's nothing I can do about that.
Ti West
Image
I do think, even though I've made these genre movies, there's what happens in the movie and then there's what the movie's about. And for me, what the movie's about is so much more interesting.

The movie [ The Innkeepers] is in no way a comedy, but I would put some of the funny scenes up against some of the funnier comedies this year. I think it's genuinely really funny, but it's out of the gallows.

Image
They're both [Ethan Hawke and John Travolta] so good. It's hard to explain. But they're consummate professionals and you see the little choices they make - you see it in their eye. You see these little details they do where you go, That's why they're them.

Typically, in Westerns, people who are in a Western feel like they're in a Western. It's almost like they know they do all these Western things.

As filmmakers, the Western is a historic, cool thing to be a part of once in your life.

I think having funny characters is just one way of having three-dimensional characters.

In general, I go to see the stuff that for me is, Thank God for that actor, he's doing something that I never imagined thank God for this filmmaker, because if this person didn't exist, this movie wouldn't exist. That's why I go to the movies. That, to me, is what's so exciting about this movie.

I'm not sure I understand the compulsion to label things.

One of my favorite scenes of the movie [Valley of Violence] is when Ethan Hawke is sitting at the campfire with the dog.
