I have a personality that tends to be somewhat compulsive, and I do tend to think in a circular way. I dwell on the same things over and over and I try to figure out different ways of looking at the same issue.

Everything I've written is personal - it's the only way I know how to write.

I have a background in theater, so I have experience with actors. I like actors - I used to be one.

There are things that aren't represented in movies that are a big part of everyone's life. This is a movie about health and about the body.

I can never watch anything I've been involved in, because I know it, and I know what the making of it was like, and I know what's been cut out and changed. I just know it.

I like titles that are a little difficult, because it's kind of counterintuitive.

Before you start production, you have characters you have created without actors in mind, then all of a sudden you've got actors. They bring an enormous amount in creating these characters, and creating the dynamics between the characters that you've written.
