Final Cut

"That's why I say you have to have final cut. That's the freedom to be able to work with your own intuitions."

"You know, you end up feeling guilty when you demand to do every single thing the way your little heart desires. But it's not because you don't want anybody else to be able to do that. It's just that this film has to hold together for it to work and the only way it's going to hold together is if one person makes the decisions or if a bunch of people are really tuned into the same thing and they make the decisions. But it's not like an ego thing, final cut. It's just really sort of the way it has to be."
