There’s reasons I can’t turn and just look, but is there a little kid headed in here or across the street or whatever?

I don’t see Hollywood as the big enemy, because this is where the money is, and not all of the companies are doing studio movies. I’m not tempted to sell out. If I’m going to become well known, I want it to be for something I’m proud of.

The films of mine that I am most a fan of that I have made over the years deal with people in claustrophobic situations, like THE BIRTHDAY PARTY; it’s my favourite, and it all takes place basically in one room. About one third of THE EXORCIST takes place in one room. The Tracy Letts films that I have done are really brilliantly written, and they are about themes that I’m drawn to: paranoia and obsession. And they play out in tight spaces, not in open country, the Wild West, or even in the streets. If you look at THE FRENCH CONNECTION, even though it is shot all over New York, it is basically a claustrophobic film, these guys are locked in their own world.
