“There's two sides to what I do — I can do the big studio film, and I'm just a photographer. They're spending a $100 million plus on a movie; they want somebody there every day, to shoot the shit out of everything ... but then I do the smaller films like Brooklyn, and I do all the behind the scenes as well. ”
