I've been obsessed with this kind of visual storytelling for quite a while, and I try to create material that allows me to explore it.

do i have political views? you bet! i think the best way to express them is in your work, and then get the hell off the stage

I do like directing other people's material.

I've been sort of traveling around the country for ten years talking about independent features.

But, number one, I think traditional noir doesn't work in contemporary storytelling because we don't live in that world anymore
