Joel Silver has said that after working as scriptwriters on Assassins (1995), the Wachowskis made Bound as an "audition piece" to prove that they knew what to do on a movie set. Conversely, the firmer Larry Wachowski has said Silver "made that up." The Wachowskis themselves claim they "decided simply to focus on making their own directorial debut." They had the idea to write a story about how one might see a woman on the street and make assumptions about her sexuality, but how those assumptions might be wrong. They wanted to play with stereotypes and make an entertaining film that contained sex and violence, because those are the kinds of films that they like to watch. Seeing film noir as a genre within which they could tell a contained story and twist conventions, they described Billy Wilder as a big influence.
