My idea of a beach holiday is going to New York for two weeks, just going and hanging out.

When it comes to two of the big social earthquakes in the last fifty years - which are the gay movement and the women's movement - I think there is a direct line from Kinsey to those.

Kinsey thought that Freud in his own way was as dangerous as the Catholic Church.

There were moments on the set when the depth of the cast of 'Dreamgirls' was almost overwhelming to me.

There's no question that Whale's movies are classics. They were wonderful, and successful.

I wanted to make connections between Whale's past and present.

I'm a horrible public speaker.
