MUNICH: THE INTERVIEW: His Prayer For Peace
(3 of 3)
YOU SEEM TO HAVE THIS PATTERN OF DOING TWO MOVIES BACK-TO-BACK AND THEN STEPPING BACK. DO YOU LIKE DOING IT THAT WAY? I hate doing it that way. When I don't have a movie, I don't take a job just for the sake of working. I just sit it out until I find something I'm passionate about. If I find something light, I'll make it. Like Terminal. It wasn't a film that I'll be remembered for, but it's a film I'll remember for the rest of my life, a sweet short story that gave me a chance to work with Tom Hanks--and people think I'm crazy for saying this--giving what I think was his best performance. Some people have said, "Why did you make that little movie when you could have been doing something important?" And I said, "Well, at the time it was important." And if I find something dark and historical--like this Doris Kearns Goodwin book [Team of Rivals, about Abraham Lincoln] I'm working on now--I'll do that. It's just how things work out. It's all about timing.
