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

My grandfather lived to be 96 years old. He was born in a town outside of Salerno in Southern Italy. He came to New York when he was 20. He lived in the States from age 20 to 96, but he brought his culture with him, he brought his food with him, he brought his language with him, he never spoke a word of English.

I live with a bunch of yuppies and models.

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

A script is not a piece of literature, it's a process.

It's funny, the hardest thing to do is to make something look like it's fast, loose and improvised, and get somebody to laugh.

My life is proof that I don't need you to do what I do. If there's no one to see it, I'll watch it.
