“A preoccupation with words for their own sake is fatal to good film making. It’s not what films are for[…] The best scenes I ever wrote were practically monosyllabic. And the best short scene I ever wrote, by my own judgement, was one in which a girl said “uh-huh” three times with three different intonations, and that’s all there was to it. The hell of good film writing is that the most important part is what is left out. It’s left out because the camera and the actors can do it better and quicker, above all quicker. But it had to be there in the beginning.”
