Andy Wachowski Director Quotations

We thought we'd write a good script for women, giving them the fun roles that generally men get.

We've always loved going to the movies. Our mom and dad are big movie fans. They'd take us on these movie orgys where we'd see sometimes three movies in a day.

We started out thinking of this as a comic book. We filled notebook after notebook with ideas. That's where the script came from.

The script was a synthesis of making mythology relevant in a modern context, relating quantum physics to Zen Buddhism, investigating your own life.

The script was too disturbing. We showed it to some people in Hollywood who said, This is a bad idea. I can't make this. I'm rich.
