I see a movie as a way of learning about the world, about myself, and learning about my relationship with people and art.

Thinking back to those earlier days, I felt I was weak when I wasn't making movies, and then when I was, I thought I was weak as a family member.

You can get rich or famous by doing the same thing.

I did a women's movie, and I'm not a woman. I did a gay movie, and I'm not gay. I learned as I went along.

I feel like all of my characters now take this congested situation, they clash, and from there you purge yourself.

The way I go about a lovemaking scene is that we will talk about it during the rehearsing time.

If you try to act, you're going to look like you're acting. So don't act.
