But the answer to the first part of your question, and this has always been the case for me with my work, is I have to know the answer.
I have to know
what I believe the answer to be.
And then, otherwise, the ambiguities won't be productive.
They'll be a sort of non-answer, as opposed to if you look at the ending of Inception, for example, the spinning top.
People often will ask me, you know,
Was it?
Well, exactly.
Yes.
Exactly.
First time I ever took a film, you know, really out there and did a bunch of interviews on it was Memento.
Right.
And that's a film I wrote based on a short story that my brother had written.
And he came with me, came with us to the Venice Film Festival, which is where we premiered it.
And right afterwards, I was asked a bunch of questions, and they asked me about the ambiguity of the end.
And I said, well, it's meant to be up to you, but I think it's this, this, this.
And he took me aside, and he's like, nobody heard the first part where they said it's meant to be up to you.
All they hear is what you say.
Your interpretation trumps everything.
You can never do that again.
