Billy Ray repeats some comments in this interview almost word for word in an interview he would go on to give a few years later. This repetition is perhaps most noticeable in what he says about returning to being only a screenplay writer after having been a writer/director on some projects. Here in The Dialogue: An Interview with Screenwriter Billy Ray (2007)he says, "I got into this business to work with great directors. And I am not a great director, so it would be stupid of me to limit myself to working only with me." In a segment of an interview appearing in More Tales from the Script (2010), Ray says "I got into writing with the idea that I wanted to work with great directors. I am not a great director, so it would be stupid to limit myself to only working with me." In both cases he immediately follows these comments by citing Ang Lee and Peter Weir as two of the "great directors" he would like to work with, although he reverses the order in which he mentions them.
