That's kind of the weird thing that M. Night Shyamalan has sort of unleashed upon the world is this need for every movie to have these ridiculous endings.
I direct a lot of TV commercials and music videos.
The film, even when we were making it in that budget range, which was really a coup - we got it made because we pitched it to the studio head, Joe Roth.
I'm not trying to be some kind of underground renegade.
I really love sort of classical cinema where people were telling stories with very little dialogue, and people were using the camera in a really interesting way.
The thing about movies these days is that the commerce end of it is so inflated and financiers are just expecting this enormous return on their investment.
