Don't do it if you don't love it, and be enthusiastic about your work. Really invest it in everything in your being. Do what has to be done. Get up at 2 in the morning if an idea strikes you, and don't wait to get up at 6 or 7, do it when it's there.

- Bruce Joel Rubin

With over 23 years in the business, Bruce Joel Rubin has done it all. From his Oscar-winning® screenplay for the romantic-comedy-drama Ghost, to the psychological thriller Jacob’s Ladder, the family-friendly adventure Stuart Little 2, and the tearjerker My Life, which he also directed. Other writing credits include Deep Impact, Brainstorm and Deceived. In this in-depth interview, Rubin delivers some insightful stuff: his carpet-laying theory about writing, the story behind the Jacob’s Ladder gut-wrenching opening scene, and which of his screenplays came about thanks to a burrito that didn’t digest well.
