Fairuza Balk : They said I had to come to dinner and that our director, our new director, was here. And this older gentleman in, you know, "director gear" with this jungle hat on came into the restaurant.
Marco Hofschneider : And at one point, during the dinner, I actually ask him, "What's your take on this story? Certain vision?" And he's like "Ah, Marco! Vision! That's an overused word, I'm telling you. It's not about a vision. I'm trying to tell a story here, okay?" "I mean, yeah, but what... is... you gonna tell this story?" "Ah, we're gonna see! I brought in my own writer!" So, I'm like, "Okay, it's gonna be a different movie, I guess now."
Fairuza Balk : Initially he said, "Listen, I'm- I've just been brought in. I don't know what's going on. I'm just a director. I'm here to try to do a job. I need all the help I can get from you. You know, just be on my side, and we'll get through this type of thing." Um... within three or four days, that had changed to name-calling, and it changed to being screamed at. This man hated my guts.

Graham Humphreys : He's really, really one of the last old-school screamers. You know, he would bark out his orders, and he was just this rough, tough guy. And you could imitate him!
Peter Elliott : [imitating John Frankenheimer] "Things are gonna change 'round here!"
Fairuza Balk : [imitating John Frankenheimer] "Alright, I need a man there on camera one!" And, you know, "Camera two, you better be ready to catch that any second!"
Marco Hofschneider : [imitating John Frankenheimer] "And you gotta throw the charge and the whole thing goes up into flames!"
