I'd been all hyped about it, I was like, Please come, and to have that and know Tommy Nohilly is probably going like, This is cool, it makes me feel good.

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.

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 don't think you want to preach to people. I don't think In A Valley Of Violence, and the same with The Sacrament, there's a social commentary and a political element to both the films, but it's not like, Think this because I think this.

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

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

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.

Everything Jumpy could do [in Valley of Violence] was too much. If I put it in the movie you would all check out. When he wraps himself up in the blanket, that's as far as I could go, and that's not even close. The dog's amazing.

You have to. But I generally try - I'll creep in the back. I'll be outside. I'll pace around. I don't really get that nervous about whether people like [my films].

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.

One of my favorite scenes of the movie [Valley of Violence] is when Ethan Hawke is sitting at the campfire with the dog.
Ti West
Image
The first half [of Valley of Violence] was to endear you to all these people and give you all these archetypes that you're familiar with, and then the second half, just to see all those archetypes unravel like real people.

[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.

If people don't like [my film], the ship's sailed. There's nothing I can do about that.

It is a very classic Western [Valley of Violence], and if you like Westerns, you'll like this movie, but there's a tone to it that's all its own that I think is unique and memorable.
Ti West
Image
Of course, we talked about Westerns we like with [James Ransone in Valley of Violence] , but it was always thematically in relation to the movie and what the themes of the movie were.

You want to be able to say [to Ethan Hawke's character], Dude, it's okay, but maybe it's not. Maybe he's not a good person. I don't know. That's the thing about people. There is no real good guy or bad guy [in A Valley Of Violence]. It's all context.

We've become so postmodern as an audience and we're so familiar with the style of horror movies that they all kind of feel the same. I think if you can do something a little bit unexpected, then you as a filmmaker end up being one step ahead again. I think that's the key.

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.

The bad guys, when they start getting picked off, they're upset that their friends died, too. But that's the thing. That's what life is. It's that weird gray area.
