There are films that cost a lot of money that might be decent films. But if they don't perform in that first weekend or two, they're gone.
When I write, I make decent money doing it, but I don't wake up dreaming about writing.
A film like 'Good Night And Good Luck,' you make that for $7 million because you know it's a black-and-white film, and it's not an easy sell. If you make it for $7 million, then everybody can have a chance to make a little bit of money, and you get to make the film you want to make.
