"That's the kind of
movie that I like to make,
where there is an invented
reality and the audience is
going to go someplace
where hopefully they've
never been before. The
details, that's what the
world is made of.
When you're 11 or 12 years old,
you can get so swept up in a book
that you start to believe that the
fantasy is reality. I think when you
have a giant crush when you're in
fifth grade, it becomes your whole
world. It's like being underwater;
everything is different."
