A biography for Debbie Allenhasn’t been written yet.
“The production team's first meeting took place at my house. I had ideas and a color scheme in mind, how I wanted the movie to look, because that has to be a real collaboration.”
“In scoring we have a lot that was not evident in the shooting. The radio is on all the time.”
“I design my shots. I walk the rehearsal as the camera and say 'this is where I want to be... I want this look.”
“The biggest challenge was that we had to shoot so quickly and with such a limited budget.”
“As far as pacing the shoot is concerned, I know when I've got it. I don't think there's any reason to take ten takes unless you need them.”
