I Think It's A Terrible

Making A Film Is A Way For Me To Understand What It's Like To Be A Murderer, To Confess, To Be A Beaten Wife, To Be A Minority, To Be A Victor, To Get The Girl, To Lose The Girl. I Can Do All Of That Through The Practice Of An Art Form.

No, I Never Went To College. Always Regretted It, Always Envied People Who Did.

And I Taught Acting For Years, And Without Knowing It That Was The Real Thing That Started Bending Me Toward Directing.

The Very Reasons Sometimes That You Make A Film Are The Reasons For Its Failure.

It's Always Interesting To Play People Different From Yourself, It Would Be Boring For Me To Play Myself.
