A infância de Dave Eggers


“Maurice and Spike and I talked a lot about how we were all like Max (...). I was completely hard to control as a kid. There’s nothing that Max does in my book which I wouldn’t do worse. I still find that all the boys I know that age are the same: they like to smash things, play with swords and guns. Regular boys’ stuff. But throughout the process of writing the screenplay and the book there were people in the movie studio who were expressing shock about what Max would do or say. Because it isn’t depicted any more."

“There is a whitewashed, idealised version of childhood that is popular in movies. It has the kids sitting neatly in their chairs, talking in some adult, sarcastic, overly sophisticated but polite way — a concoction that bears no resemblance to an actual kid.”

Dave Eggers, co-argumentista do filme O Sítio das Coisas Selvagens de Spike Jonze, em entrevista ao Times
