About 'Full Metal Jacket': 'The many takes are not just repetitions of the same thing; they are often building upon a theme or idea that can mature and develop into something quite extraordinary. The whole structure of the scene can actually change during the operation of filming it... The large number of takes is used mainly to get something out of the actors that they're not willing to provide right away... There were occasions on 'Full Metal Jacket' where we went a few more than 25 or 30 takes, but we usually didn't average more than 10 to 15 takes.'
