I think I avoid stepping into sentimentality by trying to be as truthful as possible with performances.
I really liked doing a number of the projects and directors, and etc., etc., I knew about half-way through that I would never be doing that again. It's just not me. I really am happy as a part-time film composer, not a full-time film composer.
To put it rather bluntly, I am not the type who wants to go back to the land; I am the type who wants to go back to the hotel.
