David Kayne

I never went to film school or anything like that.

[on John Alderman] Johnny was a good guy. He was just a wonderful, cooperative, sweet fellow. He did a lot of work for a lot of good people--he was a stock player for Dave Friedman [David F. Friedman], I know.

[on why he stopped making movies in the mid-'90s] Let me explain the world to you. It's changed. We're not the same people we used to be, and it's not the same industry it used to be. We were making little movies, grinding them out, and putting them on the screen. Well, you can't put them on the screen anymore, so there's no reason to make little movies anymore. Where are you going to play them? I could've made porno movies, but I didn't want to do that. So I just stopped--as did most of us.

I wasn't interested in what people thought of the films, I was just looking for another project--"Let's get another script, let's shoot again." If we made any money on it, fine. If we didn't, fine. I was never into the business end of it.
