Quotes

Erik Peter Carlson

  • I don't think you should know where these things come from when you write. If you do, you're probably doing something wrong.
  • I write because it's my therapy.
  • [on the difference between Toy Soldiers and Transatlantic Coffee] It's a completely different project than Transatlantic Coffee. It will be a unique and an extraordinary, yet very exciting challenge.
  • I enjoy films when you leave enjoying the characters, probably more than the story itself. It's just something you remember. It's just my taste.
  • Of course the making of a production is always stressful, but it's welcomed.
  • [on Transatlantic Coffee] It doesn't necessarily show New York in a Woody Allen type of way, with the beautiful landscapes. It's a very moody piece.
  • [on Transatlantic Coffee] It's a romance picture, I always thought of it as a romance picture. He had a loved one who he lost, so it's really romance picture where you don't see the romance.
  • [on Transatlantic Coffee] I wanted to make it a big, deep character study on this one character. There are some traits in there that just came out.
  • [on Transatlantic Coffee] Everyone always said it looked like a foreign movie, and I don't know, I don't watch all of these foreign films. I guess it's just the way I structured it.
