Stupid F***ing White Man.

I Start With Actors That I Know Personally Or I Know Their Work, And There Are Things About Their Work Or Their Presence Or Their Own Personality That Make A Character, That Exaggerates Some Qualities And Suppresses Other Qualities. It's Always A Real Collaboration For Me.

I'm Not Interested In Stories. Stories Are Interesting But I Don't Think My Head Works That Way. I Remember At Age 10 I Dreamt Of Making Animated Cartoons As Loops, Something You Could Just Project On Your Wall And Look At From Time To Time. Kind Of, Something To Stare At, Something That's Always There.

I'm Still Trying To Learn How To Do It, I'm Still Trying To Figure Out How To Make Films, But, Yeah, It Started Then [in 1979].

I Think You Can Only Be Nostalgic For Something You've Lost.

I Am Interested In The Non-dramatic Moments In Life. I`m Not At All Attracted To Making Films That Are About Drama. A Few Years Back, I Saw A Biopic About A Famous American Abstract Expressionist Artist. And You Know What? It Really Horrified Me.
