Director 24 1-8 DVD back from cold with "Salt" thriller

After ten years working 24 Hours DVD| 24 Hours the studio system, Phillip Noyce could be considered the spy 24 1-8 DVD Set director who came in from the cold.

In the '90s, the 60-year-old Australian 24 Hours DVDs the Jack Ryan tales "Patriot Games" and "Clear and Present Danger," but then retreated to his homeland for such indie features as "Rabbit-Proof Fence" and "The Quiet American."

"Salt," opening Friday, marks his return to 24 Hours DVD Season the big-budget action thriller and to Angelina Jolie, whom he first directed in 1999's "24 Seasons 1-8 DVD."

YOU ONCE SAID YOU'D HAD ENOUGH OF HOLLYWOOD AND ITS

COMPROMISES. WHAT PERSUADED YOU TO RETURN?

Phillip Noyce: I made three 24 DVD new release in 10 years, and each one of the production processes was followed by a year and half of travel to the four Prison Break DVD| Prison Break of the earth -- enjoyable travel, but nevertheless a lot of effort helping distributors find audiences. After 10 years as a town crier, saying "Please come and see my Prison Break DVD Set," I really was glad for the prospects of having the colonizing genius of Hollywood doing the town-crying for me. The Prison Break DVD Box Set is such an effective proselytizer.

Making films outside the studio system was a Prison Break DVDs, a different approach to storytelling, a different set of priorities. It was totally invigorating -- working within the Prison Break complete box set can grind you down. I certainly came back feeling like I was 10 years younger, not 10 years older.

Sony is a studio which has no fear of age. Prison Break DVD Season, when he was in his mid-60s, directed a worldwide hit like "Casino Royale" with the vigor and passion of a seemingly much younger CSI NY DVD. When we were discussing crew members, I mentioned one potential person and said, "But he's not young." I was very CSI NY DVD Season when (Sony Pictures Entertainment co-chairman) Amy (Pascal) said, "We don't mind experience here." Which was really CSI NY DVD box set to hear and affirming, that because you'd been around the block once or twice you might be considered an asset.

WHY THIS PARTICULAR MOVIE?

Noyce: The hook is so compelling, the idea of a CSI NY DVDs being accused of something that forces her to go on the run and examine her own identity.

EXCEPT THE MAIN CHARACTER WAS WRITTEN AS A MAN WHEN YOU

FIRST DISCUSSED IT.

Noyce: I came in and CSI NY box set to (Columbia president) Matt Tolmach and Amy sometime in 2007. And it was a year later that they contacted me again to continue the conversation. Tom Cruise was considering the role, but eventually it was too CSI NY 1-6 DVD to ("Mission: Impossible's") Ethan Hunt. That's when Amy made what at first seemed the outrageous suggestion that we should offer it to Ghost Whisperer DVD.

It didn't take long to figure out that was an inspired Ghost Whisperer DVD box set: All the relationships and Ghost Whisperer DVD season within the movie were only going to be richer if the character were played by a woman and that woman was Ghost Whisperer DVDs Jolie, bringing her extreme athleticism and her acute dramatist's skill as an actress. So (producer) Lorenzo di Bonaventura, (writer) Kurt Wimmer and I went over to France and spent about a week with Ghost Whisperer 1-5 DVD discussing the possibilities. We laid out the framework for the kind of movie we wanted to make.

IN THE FINISHED FILM, SALT HAS A HUSBAND. WAS THAT THE ONLY

OTHER SEX CHANGE INVOLVED IN RE-WORKING THE SCRIPT?

Noyce: In the original script, the last Futurama DVD Box Set was devoted to Edward A. Salt rescuing his wife and child from a coalition of bad guys. That seemed to be an utterly conventional third act and also predictable for the audience. Our first Futurama DVD rule was that from any point 10 minutes in, if you asked the audience where this film was going, they would be wrong. We said, let's make a movie that's snakelike, that keeps weaving and Futurama DVDs and shedding its skin. And let's make a film that's relentless in its entertainment value and its storytelling.

SO YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO ALTER ANY OF THE OTHER CHARACTERS?

Noyce: No, but every Futurama Box Set that she has, every encounter has really changed. It's just a different frisson. For example, Salt's boss was always called Futurama DVD Season, but there was a very different camaraderie, a very male-to-male friendship between Edward and Ted than there is between Futurama 1-5 Box Set and Ted. We cast Liev Schreiber because we were looking for an actor who could bring a lot more emotionality and almost Medium Seasons 1-6 DVD Box Set an unrequited passion for his protege.

There's also something delicious about a group of Medium DVD chasing a woman who manages to elude Medium1-6 DVD through cunning and brawn. That just tickles everyone's fancy. You don't have to be a feminist to respond to the Medium DVD Box Set . Hopefully, if this film is successful, Angelina will have opened up a whole new genre, not just expanding the arena for herself, but opening up parts for other Medium DVD Season.
