"I fell in love with Montana photographing it, in the spring, in the summer, in the fall. And when I knew it well enough, I wrote a script for it, together with Sam Shepard. (I didn't have to twist his arm.) That became DON'T COME KNOCKING. The experience of shooting in Montana was fabulous. Our local crew and casting were great, and the weather was steadily gorgeous. It could become addictive... "
