“You are an incredibly meticulous director. I just asked you how your writing is going [‘Part II’] and you said, “Slow,” and I think that’s a wonderful quality, because you care so much.
Reeves explained the pace of his creative process, explaining, “The thing is, for me I feel like it’s not a choice. I always feel like I would never do it the way I’m doing it, except it’s the only way I know how to do it.
He went on to describe writing and filmmaking as navigating a dark room. “Everything you need is in the room, but there are no lights and you’re on your hands and knees. And when something connects with you, you say, “Oh, that’s something.”
