In the past I've made movies that were pretty universally liked. You can't really hate them. You can discard them, but you can't really hate them.

I'm just a pretty regular dad.

Beautifully-acted and precisely observed, ILO ILO is an amazing debut, full of heart and intelligence.

So there was one point I thought I was gonna lose it, but once I get on something I have to finish it; I just kept persuading them and they turned around. One good thing was the international guys really stood behind this movie, they thought they could support this film. So these guys step up and that's really good, and then they turned around.

I think the American West really attracts me because it's romantic. The desert, the empty space, the drama.
