Im not going to have a perfect career. Its better to be Billy Wilder and make lots of movies and have five or six great ones than to make so few movies that when you make a bad one it crushes you. – Jason Reitman
When youre young, you want to make every kind of film: musicals, Westerns, horror. Slowly you begin to hear your own voice. I hope people receive what I do as small, personal films that are somewhat contrarian about their main characters. – Jason Reitman
Its funny, I can sit through the worst horror film ever made but even a quite good romantic comedy can drive me nuts. – Jason Reitman
There are only so many movies you can direct. And yet there are movies that I want to make sure make it to the screen in as honest a way as possible. – Jason Reitman
The thing you cant let go of is gravity. The reality of gravity in writing. If someone says something really mean in a sitcom, and the next wave isnt a reaction to the reality of that, you start losing relatability. In a lot of romantic comedies, they throw out the rules of life. – Michael Patrick King
