The experience that I understand you had
in regards to making Eraserhead
which took five years and you were
working in order to continue to make
that movie and then Dune which you had
40 million dollars of funding and you've
said it was like being in a prison.
Well no it wasn't exactly that way.
You know necessity is the mother of invention
and you can do a lot with a little
and Eraserhead I delivered The Wall
Street Journal is how I made my money I
made fifty dollars a week I lived
on $200 a month I had everything
I have now I don't know how life got so
expensive these days and so I could
build a set for 35 or 40 dollars now a
set is two or three hundred thousand
dollars some of them it's really
ridiculous
so and Dune wasn't 45 million Dino said
it was 45 million because he came from a
time when big and grandiose was the best
but really in the time he said these
things people were turned off by that
amount of money so but Dino is a...
was a crafty fellow and he did it for
far less than 45 million
