 At an age when many people are still looking to find a career, US director-screenwriter Damien Chazelle, 32, is already at the top of his.     Two of the three movies he wrote and directed – Whiplash (《爆裂鼓手》,2014) and La La Land (《爱乐之城》,2016) – have won several Academy Awards . On Feb 27, La La Land took home six Oscars, including Best Director, which makes him the youngest director in history to win the award.     At a moment like this, it’s perfectly normal if someone gets a little carried away with their sudden fame. But that “someone” is not Chazelle.     This might be hard to believe, but the director said that he has been living in self-doubt for all his life. He has a habit of worrying that everything will go wrong and that people won’t like his stories, even if the fact that he went to Harvard Film School is enough for many people to feel jealous.     “The one thing I think that I’m good at is not getting confident,” he said in an interview with website Firstshowing. In fact, he wrote the story for Whiplash in 2013 but didn’t feel good about it at first. He locked it away for a year before finally having the courage to show it to a film producer. And it turned out to be a great story.     But self-doubt didn’t stop Chazelle from trying, because he knew that “the more a project scares you, the more that probably means it’s worth doing,” he told GQ magazine.     And that was the attitude he took with La La Land, even if it was a big challenge. For starters, musicals are not as popular among audiences as regular movies. Shooting a musical is also much harder because it’s like making three projects all at once – the movie itself, a singing album, and a dancing concert. But Chazelle managed to not only finish it, but also make it the biggest winner at the Oscars.     To Chazelle, perhaps, no matter how scared he is, trying new ideas is always more important than staying in his comfort zone .     “I have so much respect for movies that try something or risk being embarrassing . That’s much more inspiring to me than movies that play it safe,” he told Vice magazine.
