Edward Kern "Ted" Demme (/ˈdɛmi/ DEM-ee; October 26, 1963 – January 13, 2002) was an American director, producer, and actor.
The thing that's great about those guys at Miramax is the Weinstein brothers. They are the two funniest guys I've ever met in my life.
The older I get the more I realize there's no real good guys or real bad guys, and I'm curious about how the good guys got good and how the bad guys got bad.
I tried to stick to my game plan, which was always being aware of what my A story was - the love story between a father and his son, and that son and his daughter.
You know, I think everything I do cinematically for the rest of my life will probably have some direct route back to Jonathan. But I love him to death. He's like my best friend and my big brother.
I was influenced by European movies, old Fellini, old Kurosawa - any sort of foreign film.
I'm at Miramax now, where I've actually been treated like a Prince.
But my humble opinion is, I'm not quite sure where I stand on the legalization of drugs - though, if tequila is legal, pot should probably be legal.
What I think happens today is that a lot of filmmakers look at other films that are retro pieces, like L. A. Confidential, and say, oh, that's period. We didn't want to do the stereotypical stuff.
