I Think People Are People

I've Always Wanted To Introduce Hip-hop Filmmaking To Film. There's Hip-hop Art, Dance, Music, But There Really Isn't Hip-hop Film. So I Was Trying To Do That.

I Think People Are People And If Their Feelings Are Real And Truthful, They Can Connect.

I Think That There's An Infinite Amount Of Places Where You Can Stick A Camera. There's An Infinite Amount Of Choices Of What Could Be Going On. There's An Infinite Amount Of Places For So Many Things, So You Have To Figure Out How To Do Your Job.

It Would Be Nice To Make A Movie That Other People Want To Make, Because Every One Of These Movies, I Basically Have To Find The Only Company In The World That's Willing To Make It, And It's Always A Big Challenge. I End Up Spending A Tremendous Amount Of Energy And Time Trying To Get Money To Make These Movies And It's Exhausting.

Noah Was This Sort Of Patron Saint In My Life. When I Finished Pi And I Started To Think About What Was Next, I Was Like, "wow, It's Interesting That No One Has Done A Film Of One Of The Greatest Stories Ever Told." Even If You're Not A Jew, A Muslim, Or A Christian, You Likely Have A Flood Story In Your Culture.
