Taymor Reflects on Failure in Post- ‘Spider-Man’ Q&A

WSJ: "Director Julie Taymor made some of her first public comments about “Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark” since her dismissal from its helm in March, discussing her experiences with failure and defending what she characterized as the musical’s broad appeal.
“I think it’s very important to be true to your heart and true to your vision,” Taymor said during a Q&A about her career at the Tribeca Film Festival. “I am passionate about the projects that I do, and I would hate, even if they fail in certain ways…” she trailed off. “There are many questions about why things don’t work.”
