I'm looking for the source for this John Sayles quote:
". . . That’s why so many of Hitchcock’s guys are architects. In the ecology of certain movies, you need a person to be able to be gone for a long time and having an adventure–and nobody knows what the fuck and architect does. They have little plans that are rolled up, and they go visit a building site every once in a while, but they kick off for a week and a half and have an adventure—nobody misses them. And it’s kind of a classy thing; they obviously went to college, and da-da-da. Otherwise you’ve got to go and work."
--filmmaker John Sayles on the suggestion that his own movies insist on the economic necessity of work
