On one hand, you could say that that's not your job, that it's their business what they do with the film. But it must be frustrating when that happens. It is frustrating, but it's also out of my control. Miramax is a specific example. What happens I can't control.
Some distributors work much more closely and respectfully than others.
It's a different game, in a way, and it's not really my expertise. Although I had trouble with Miramax myself, I do respect the way they've marketed and released a lot of films. When they're behind something, they do a really good job, and when they're not, it sort of falls by the wayside, which was the case with Dead Man . I don't know how to evaluate those things, so all I can do is try to make films that those of us who make the film are proud of and happy with. Then, with the rest, you kind of have to see what happens.
