I don't want to do an action movie, because I've acted in them, and they're so boring to do, because they're so technical. The headache of that is daunting. But, if it were an action movie with really interesting characters, how great would that be?

[Some of his characters were underdeveloped, to the extent that their speeches could be (and sometimes were, in Wilson's habitual frequent rewrites) interchanged. His dramatic structures and even his use of the musical powers of African American idioms were fairly old-fashioned compared with the exciting adventurousness of Suzan-Lori Parks. But even his traditionalism could be seen as a source of strength.] He was writing in the grand tradition of Eugene O'Neill and Arthur Miller,.. The politically engaged, direct, social-realist drama. He was reclaiming ground for the theater that most people thought had been abandoned.

They are just so much fun, and you can do a lot with them. The characters are funny as they are written anyway, and with this enthusiastic young cast, they become these charming, lively entities that are telling the story quite beautifully.

The subsequent story that follows the wedding leaves us with a lot more to explore with these two characters.

There's so much truth about frustration and desperation. These two characters are so beaten down, but they find something to cling to. I think the brain has a way of clinging onto things that may not be rational, but they get you through the moment, and that's what the characters do so much of.

It's set in high school, so it's a different demographic we're going for. You look at those characters and you go, 'What would they be like 10 or 15 years earlier than the characters you saw in the first one?

It may seem like the martial arts world has always been dominated by male characters. But that's only the physical difference. When you write in a female warrior in a male-dominated story, she takes on a kind of strength and mental integrity that do not distinguish her from her male counterparts. My idea is to create an impact when you see a woman fighter fighting with all the might of a man.

When I worked in the military, I would take off the lab coat before giving a shot. I'd wear a tie with cartoon characters -- something for the children to focus on instead of the needle.

The essence of the style is overblown, while maintaining a lot more levels to laugh at things. The characters are caricatures of familiar types, much like the Marx brothers. I also keep looking back to 'Saturday Night Live,' where each company member became a formulaic character so that the audience would be familiar with that character type.

I think a spirit of independence is really important, and not just for a woman. I'm always interested in characters - not just as an actress, but as a spectator, too - who have their own way of being, of living, even if it's not the best way, or even if it's unstable or sometimes mean.

Film is really a kind of theater of thought. You're watching people think in movies, which is the fascinating and completely unique experience of film versus other kinds of theater, where the thoughts have to be expressed in words. In film, of course you have words, but mostly you have thought and attitude, and that attitude is mostly expressed in the eyes of the characters.

Like other Feminist science fiction authors, McIntyre writes of powerful, competent, courageous female characters who would never wait for a man to rescue them, nor let him be the one to accomplish great deeds.

I tend to be attracted to characters who are up against a wall with very few alternatives. And the film then becomes an examination of how they cope with very few options. And that's, I guess, what interests me in terms of human behavior.

It's the show that keeps on giving. The characters are real people. You just can't play them in caricature as you can in some other works. And therein lies a wonderful challenge. It's the best curriculum you can find for opera training.

I assume that part of it is due to the quality of the show and the characters and their chemistry. People like the way it twists and turns on itself. Each week is a puzzle, a really well-done puzzle.

It is important to have children in 'The Magic Flute,' because it adds an innocent wisdom to the opera. These three spirits give enlightened information to help two of the major characters past their problems.

It's the subversive nature of how we deal with family values. I think what's really exciting about the show is the nonjudgmental look we have on our characters. It enables us to dramatize the way a family works without being cynical.

What I was writing was not a planned thing, it was organic, with the characters working out their own destiny. Sitting there in the grey old empty bungalow, I felt like a man driving a coach and four, roughly knowing the direction in which the coach would travel, but being pulled along by forces only just under his control.
