Barry Sonnenfeld

So let it be their decision.

Okay, here's an easy one, number six, which is never stand on the end of a group photo.

You've got two things working against you.

First of all, the physics of a wide-angle lens on most cameras makes anyone on the edge of frames sort of seem wide.

And second of all, you're easy to crop out of the photo.

So...

You always want to stay in the center where the important person is.

Okay, that's an easy one.

Number seven, which is, oh, this is a good one.

It's called Outjuvenile, a Screaming Bully.

Okay.

The first movie I directed was produced by the famous Scott Rudin.

Scott was a brilliant producer, but a legendary screamer and bully.

So this is how I tamed the beast.

Okay, whenever I was in Scott's office on both Adam's Family and Adam's Family Values, and he would scream at me,

I would remove the pillows and bolsters from his couch.

I would build myself a fort.

I would climb into the fort, and I would say, I can't hear you.

I'm in the fort.

Scott would scream, get out of the goddamn fort, Sonnenfeld.
