Bill Sienkiewicz

Like Godfather, you look at a movie like that, or something that James Gray has directed, a film with minimal or pin lighting as opposed to everything being lit bright and flat, where everything is evident.
Bill Sienkiewicz

Nothing is really media driven or committee driven, so you can actually just produce something.
Bill Sienkiewicz

One of the problems I have with a lot of movies these days is that everything is too well lit. In the world of digital creations there is a tendency to show too much.

Bill Sienkiewicz

There is a whole generation of people who are going to see movies or watch TV who don't want to work.
Bill Sienkiewicz
