\u201cI actually do read the newspaper every day. Yes, the physical newspaper. No, I go online plenty, probably more than I would like. But I do it at a computer in my office. You know, I don\u2019t like to be distracted during the day overly. So I don\u2019t carry a smartphone with me and all the rest. But I know I stay very informed as much as I can, you know, through traditional media, through online as well. But I don\u2019t do any social media or anything like that. I try not to get too bogged down in the process of feeling connected with the world. It doesn\u2019t really take long to, you know, get up to speed on the news of the day. You don\u2019t need to spend your entire existence doing it. And I\u2019m very easily distractible, so it\u2019s better for me to put that in a box and have a particular period of time where I\u2019m paying attention to what\u2019s going on outside world. And then I need to focus on the thing it is that I\u2019m doing. And so when I\u2019m making a film, I very much get into a bubble and don\u2019t keep in touch with what\u2019s going on in the world. But that\u2019s sort of the job, really. I mean, I\u2019m being paid or being entrusted with a budget. And I\u2019m being given the responsibility of focusing entirely on this particular film while I\u2019m making it. That\u2019s my job.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
