Beyond the Frame: Jim Jarmusch's Golden Rlues
Jim Jarmusch’s Golden Rules on filmmaking. It’s heartening to read these as sometimes my frustrations in filmmaking and acting don’t have the proper words to defend or fight with. I think I need to print and frame these rules, perhaps have an extra copy on hand to show people who may have forgotten what it’s about.
If you are a filmmaker, read these.
My particular favorite snippets:
If anyone tells you there is only one way, their way, get as far away from them as possible, both physically and philosophically.
People who finance films, distribute films, promote films and exhibit films are not filmmakers.
Also, avoid sycophants at all costs.
The film is not there to serve the production.
Those with whom you choose to collaborate, if you make good choices, can elevate the quality and content of your film to a much higher plane than any one mind could imagine on its own.
Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul.
