I know his ability driving a car translated well into flying the helicopter. He is very good at flying the helicopter. |
I remember being terrified of some teachers at school who were violent. But I also remember things being absolutely hysterically funny. What I tried to do was to make a movie which was entertaining for adults as much as it was for children. |
I spoke to Ian before the game to say I appreciated someone else coming out and backing me up because really it's been a long time coming. |
I think of myself as being really lucky. I'm going to make the most expensive film there has ever been. 'These things are not like ordinary films they are world events. |
I very clearly remember that within a couple of months of starting work I was intensely angered by the lack of money, that there wasn't enough money to make the film properly and that really pissed me off. |
I was daunted, and I was also ill-tempered, |
I was sent to the stands for kicking the ball at him in an aggressive manner and pointing to where Carlos Edwards was booked, |
I'm pleased with the performance, ... but we're all a bit flat that we didn't get the win. Three games in, and I'm upset we didn't beat Leeds United! That's a measure of the week we've had. At the moment I'd say we've surprised people with our form. If we carry it on, then we might shock them. How's that for an aim? |
I've just been working on a scene which we shot in our first week, and Dan still looks the little kid that he was in Sorcerer's Stone. Now, 11 months later, he doesn't look like that at all. And that scene of him comes two-thirds of the way through the movie. So he starts as a kid of 15, then he gets younger, then he gets older, then he gets younger. |
If the club has ambition, they will want to keep me, just as I will want to keep the players. |
If you look at the 90 minutes, we were the better side, even with 10 men. We've come away from home and played decent football. We haven't sat back and tried to defend the lead, we've tried to increase it and in the end we've got done by a goal that was good enough to win any game. |
In a middle-of-the-road English education, the teachers are embattled, the school is a very kind of anarchic place and a very funny place, as well. The anarchy of youth, it is really rich stuff. I loved that. I loved doing the school side of it. |
It didn't leave the ground so I don't know what 'aggressive manner' is. He takes the ball at half-time so I'm passing the ball back to him. |
it was a thriller. |
It was just one of those oversights. It happens. I feel worse than anybody because I'm in charge of the program. |
