I wanted very much to do Traffic and at one point it looked like I was going to work on it. And then, of course, Catherine Zeta-Jones had her relationship with Michael Douglas and it suddenly didnt happen. – Kevin Costner
I enjoy sports. I get a real joy from playing sports but I dont look for those movies. Oliver Stone wanted to know if I would do Any Given Sunday and it just didnt appeal to me. – Kevin Costner
Im glad movies arent going to please everybody, they cant. But what they have to be is recognisable. I dont equate myself with a master painter, but I think you can recognise my films. – Kevin Costner
I dont feel the need to direct. I tried to get other people to direct Dances, but they wouldnt do it. They all thought it was too long. One director wanted to cut the Civil War sequence. Another thought the white woman was very cliched. – Kevin Costner
