My job is going to be to direct the film - I'm going to do it. And that's where my job ends.

My existence is about making movies, so I've just got to rock and roll with the punches. You want to make movies on telephones, I'm there.

No one can stop me from talking about my movie.

I'm not a big fan of talking about dying. And then I make a movie where I kill everybody.

That's the thing about making a movie: You never finish editing. They just take it away from you.

The last day of your life is still going to be a day.

Mulberry Street was the beating heart of the Italian-American experience, but you don't find those gangsters now. I live with a bunch of yuppies and models.
