"This was my first adventure in American movie-making," Verhoevens says, adding that it was impossible for a European director to make American movies from afar without experiencing US audiences and executives. "It was only when I started to do Robocop that I started to realize that American movies and European movies often are very different and for a different audience." "My kind of directing is sometimes difficult I think for actors, especially American actors," he says, adding that cinematographer Jan de Bont was "nearly embarrassed and tried to warn me." The issue was that Verhoeven would instruct actors through demonstration -- through acting -- instead of using his words to direct.
