"I don't feel the obligation to have a big explosion in the first 20 seconds so the audience doesn't turn on another channel. We are trying to make something that looks like a feature film that was bought for television and I think we are succeeding."

People
"I guess after Dances With Wolves they probably tried some derivative westerns, and if they didn't work, they said the western is dead and moved on to something else."

"I feel the other element of a western is the land, which is very important in this movie. I mean the land is another character in the piece, actually."
Character
"I praise CBS for taking a risk, which is always the price you pay for opportunity. This is not standard movie of the week storytelling. I think movies of the week have fallen into a niche and that isn't my niche."
Movies

"You know, there's so much imitation and so much pandering in Hollywood."
Hollywood

Character
"Having had that experience... I think, what modern culture wants to see is the relationship with the woman. I don't think you can tell a story on film nowadays where the woman simply is there for the man when he decides to settle down."
Experience
"I live a pretty simple life."
Life
