Dark Horizons has an interview with New Moon director, Chris Weitz.
Question: Where
is the dividing line that exists between your aims as a personal
filmmaker, the needs of the source material, and the demands of the
fans? I mean, do you feel that kind of pressure? Does it concern you at
all, going into it?
Weitz: I didn’t
feel a tremendous amount of pressure, because in terms of… what one
really wants is for someone to go and see the movie that you’re going
to make. So, I thought that was covered. I feel like when I’m adapting
a novel, which is what I’ve done on the last three movies that I’ve
made, my job is to be faithful to the material and to the fans, or
rather to the fans’ perception of the book. I still have sort of
tremendous freedoms that I enjoy, in terms of the visuals and how I’m
expressing the tone and the way that I’m kind of improvising on the
theme as it were. Kind of like a musical number. Maybe someday I will
sit down, write my own script, and make it precisely the way that I
want. But for me, this was precisely the version of New Moon that I
wanted to make.
