00:00Est-ce que du coup, après le succès d'Halloween, est-ce que c'était une pression particulière?
00:06Est-ce que le fait de travailler dans ce cadre vous a mis une, je ne sais pas, une sorte
00:11de nouvelle responsabilité sur les épaules?
00:13Quelque chose que vous ressentiez pas avant, quand vous aviez fait vos films vraiment en indépendant?
00:21Well, I was never really aware that Halloween was a success.
00:28Halloween went out regionally in the United States, so it started in Los Angeles, and they just moved the same
00:35prints across the country.
00:38And every town that the movie went in, I started to get out these bad reviews.
00:45Carpenter doesn't know how to work with actors, this is a turkey, this is a piece of crap.
00:51And so I thought, oh well, you know, it's a bomb.
00:58And it apparently got re-reviewed in New York, I forget the guy's name.
01:07And then it began to be considered a good film.
01:12But this all happened without my knowledge.
01:16So I was off making something else, and the head of a company, Avco Embassy, showed up at lunch to
01:24meet me.
01:25And that gave me a clue.
01:28He doesn't come to meet me because he likes me.
01:30He thinks I'm a good guy.
01:32It's because I made money.
01:36So, no, it was wonderful.
01:38I didn't feel pressure.
01:41I didn't feel bad.
01:44It was an opportunity, so I just took it.
