Cinema is an art form.

I'm a huge Coppola fan. But more of 'Apocalypse Now' and 'The Conversation.' 'The Godfather' for me is, like, number three or four on the list.

I don't know if I'd ever want to show my college life in the films I make. I think I've passed that stage long ago.

If you get validation from outside, then suddenly everything you do at home is justified.

I am a straight talker. I am not politically correct or diplomatic.

I'm very emotional and possessive about all my films.

I guess short films have a bright future... The advantage is budget.
