It's always difficult to really sum up exactly why a relationship works.

You have to keep people engaged until you get them through the next commercial. I'm not complaining about working in TV, at all, but just as an artistic reaction, I find myself being so drawn to moments of silence where things are allowed to breathe.

I find aspects of the industry tedious and hard to manage.

Everybody, at some point in their life, has fallen down and not felt like getting back up, but you have to, no matter how difficult it is.

I was a slightly melancholy child and I think films were a way of escaping for me.

I have too many control issues, so it just is not good for me to go and watch a film, too soon after I make it.

They say that theater is the actor's medium, television is the writer's medium and film is the director's medium, and it's really true.
