You earn very little money on independent films and I'm the provider for my home, so I do have to think of taking one for the accountant time and again and that means studio pictures.

I've been blessed in my career to be able to do studio and independent films.

You know, independent films have been institutionalized, practically. Every studio has got a boutique arthouse label.

Independent film is film that has thought in it. There's no independent thought in studio films. It's collective thought.

I think that there's a lot more freedom in the low budget, the independent films where, unfortunately, you don't have the money, necessarily, to get the orchestras in there to play a lot of stuff. But, you have a lot more freedom, very often.

The majority of work I do is in independent films, where you're lucky if you have five takes.
