Happy Birthday: Antoine Fuqua

Born: January 19, 1966 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA

Being a kid growing up with Kurosawa films and watching Sergio Leone movies just made me love what it could do to you, and how it could influence you – make you dream.

I take them seriously but I try not to read them. I take them personally, that’s why I don’t read them. I think people are lying when they say they don’t care, that’s not true. I take them personally.

My experience of test screenings is that you don’t know what kind of mood people are going to be in, and sometimes the studios accept what Joe Blo says – and this guy could just be a frustrated filmmaker, or not paying attention.
