It Really Shocks Me When

I Kicked College Nostalgia In My Late 20s. As Much As I Loved College And Treasure The Memories, I No Longer Want To Go Back.

I Don't Love Large Groups Of Men. I've Always Felt Like Something Terrible Could Happen When There Were No Women. If There Are Women Around, It Feels Like There's Less Of A Chance That Anyone Will Get Stabbed.

When I Write A Film, There's A Particular Thing I Am Wrestling With And The Question Or Concern I'm Dealing With Has To Be Big Enough For Me To Dedicate A Year Or Two Of My Life. If The Question Isn't Big Enough, Or Rich Enough, I'll Lose Interest.

I Learned A Lesson Which I Didn't Heed: Don't Put Yourself In Your Movies. It's Too Much.

In Writing Scripts Now, Having Made A Film, I'm Much More Conscious Of What It Means To Shoot And Edit A Movie, And That Affects The Writing.
