I can't make a choice to do a movie because people will go see it. People look at what a movie becomes and decide if they'll see it. Michael Lehmann choicedecidemake Change image and share on social
I've done movies that have mostly feminine characters and elements, and I think that both 'Heathers' and 'Truth About Cats and Dogs' are, in their own weird ways - they're different ends of the girl movie spectrum, but they're very much centered around the female characters, and I like those movies, and I like working with good actresses.

When I started 'Hudson Hawk,' I realized I was dealing with a strong-willed producer, a strong-willed actor, and, at times, a strong-willed studio, and I was the junior partner in all of this - the guy who hadn't proven anything in terms of box-office success.

It's funny: as a director, there are movies you make because you're passionate about getting your vision across, and you know that you're vision is different than anybody else. In those cases, you take the plunge, and it works, or it doesn't. You make the stylistic choices based on how you feel about the material. Michael Lehmann basecasechoice share on social
I've made movies that are real boy movies - but I've had so much fun over the years working with women and getting good performances with women and with strong female characters. Michael Lehmann boycharacterfemale Change image and share on social

You want the actor to be happy with the movie. You really want the actor to think they did a good job and all that. Michael Lehmann actorgoodhappy Change image and share on social
My first movie, 'Heathers,' had played at the festival, so I had a little bit of a Sundance connection, but I didn't really know about the Labs. Michael Lehmann biteconnectionfestival Change image and share on social
