I would like to do a science fiction film some day. Star Wars seems really to have destroyed the genre, which at one time offered great musical opportunities.

I dont find myself lobbying for projects. Filmmakers almost always come to me.

Connection is what one is after in probably most media, but certainly in film, which is an immersive medium.

Learning how to improvise really awakened my interest in music.

I prefer a life in which we don't take ourselves too seriously.

Any film which views the darker side of life, which is death with a sense of humor, is very much to my taste.

I just love the sheer mess of New York.
