I'm trying to stop working. Now I have to believe that I'm the best person for the job - or at least in the top three - and to really love the script. You must lead with passion, because actors are smart, and they can smell it when you don't.

Michael Kahn's extraordinary leadership of our Drama Division has allowed our young actors to acquire the requisite tools they will need as they work in the profession in the time ahead. With intelligence, taste, creativity and a deep understanding of the world of the theater, Michael's legacy will have a positive impact on the profession for many generations. My colleagues and I are very pleased that Michael will remain as an active member of the Juilliard community through his continuing teaching responsibilities at the School. Juilliard has been one of my artistic homes throughout my theatrical career. I am grateful to the students and faculty for inspiring me and allowing me to grow both as a person and as an artist. Although I have determined that most of my energy and time needs to be concentrated now in Washington, I am more than pleased to remain on the faculty of this extraordinary institution.

[If Harmony is her character, it also appears to be one of Monaghan's strengths -- her part being sandwiched between the roles of Downey Jr. And Kilmer, a bumbling thief and gay detective, respectively. The trio, according to the Iowa native, clicked from the start.] I have to say I was in awe of them,.. These were two actors that I really admired for such a long time, but on the first day they literally said, 'Go for it -- do whatever you want creatively.'

Shakespeare puts a lot of demand on the actors. He doesn't tell you very much about how to behave. He just gives you the lines.

I'm still working on doubling the actors. Shakespeare, of course, did that with a limited acting company. People would take on different roles. A man would become a woman.. He made crowd scenes out of very few people. We're going to have to do the very same thing.

So I said to the production company, 'what are we going to Canada for if we're not going to use local actors?' And they said to me - and this was something that I was unaware of - 'the accent is different.' And I said, being from Australia, 'what a load of nonsense.' But after I had been here for a few weeks I realized that this was indeed true, the accent is different.

I have some director friends who have said that they don't really like working with actors - directors who have said 'I wish they would just get on with it. I don't want to talk to them,' which always struck me as strange because I certainly like talking to actors and I have spent a long time casting them.

I think casting is important because if you get the right actors cast then you appear to be a much better director than you are because then it goes very smoothly. But if you make a mistake in the casting and you want a performance that is somewhat different to what they want to do, it's going to be very difficult.

Well, I storyboard the films from every shot and from every angle. I specify to the cameraman where the camera should be and what lens he should use and then I work out all the moves for the actors. Of course this can change, but I would have to say that 95% of the time the film is done exactly the way I have storyboarded it.

The majors now have sort of semi-independent companies allied with them, making lower-budget films. They're competing with us. And television is a huge target for young people. So we don't quite have the monopoly on young writers, directors, producers and actors that we formerly did.
