I have demons you can't even imagine.

A movie is made for an audience and a film is made for both the audience and the film-makers.

I don't have the Tom Hanks fans. When you make the kind of movies I make, you get weird letters from people.

I always say everyone was lucky enough to be in a Cate Blanchett movie.

You have the power to pause stuff and you have the power to go to the bathroom. You can do whatever you want in your own home. It's a much more relaxed thing. It's more like a book, it seems to me. That's kind of the way I watch movies.

I was always interested in films that scar.

My idea of professionalism is probably a lot of people's idea of obsessive.
