Charlie Kaufman
  • I do like escapism. I like going to the movies on a Friday night and seeing something fun.

  • I really don't have any solutions and I don't like movies that do.

  • I've kind of come to the conclusion that what passes for realism in movies has nothing to do with reality and that my stuff is more realistic than that.

  • In a lot of movies, especially big studio ones, they're not constructed in any other way than to get people to like them and then tell their friends. It's a product.

  • I wanted to deal with someone's idea of their relationship.
