Directing has completely changed the way I write and watch films.

Success is never bad in Hollywood. It is what you do with success that will dog you.

My films do very well on home video.

Action to me is something very fun to shoot.

Directing my own writing, I see that I talk way too much, and everything can happen much sooner, with much less said about it.

I've looked at all of Hitler's speeches thinking that there's gotta be one where he's 'I'm Hitler!', but there weren't any. His speeches were all about hope and prosperity - he ran on a platform of peace and prosperity. Hitler speeches that makes him sound like a villain are pretty hard to find, he was very detached from what he was doing, he kept himself compartmentalised from it.

Evil is a really tough concept for me. The idea of a villain that is bad for bad's sake seems kind of absurd.
