[on why he started his own production/distribution company] Ordinarily a producer sees possibly 10% of what his pictures bring in, because the income has to be cut into so many small pieces. In my case I didn't have to realize as much on my pictures because I saw 100% of what was coming in, and I didn't have an enormous bureaucratic structure to support.
