I don’t know if you’ve ever seen some of the Sidney Lumet movies, like Dog Day Afternoon [1975] or Network [1976]. They’re real events that happen in real time, and there are all of these different characters experiencing the same thing in different parts of the movie … I am so bad at explaining my films. But it’s in the world of finance and the world of media, and how they connect. It was a big undertaking. A big, mainstream movie, which stars Julia Roberts and George Clooney. But for me, it’s really just a small story about character and people.
