My theory is, independent movies only work if you're willing to push the material and do something different.
Nobody believes it, but I slept on a futon till I was 13.
Because I'm such a studio guy, I really trust my process. I really believe in myself in the studio.
Life started getting good when I started making money.
I didn't do the typical things that young kids do.
My mom just understands about stuff. We have a really good trust, and she knows I can take care of myself.
