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.

For me, the scariest thing about a serial killer is that there's somebody who lives next door to you, running power tools late into the night, and you don't know he has a refrigerator full of penises.

People always ask why I don't make independent movies. I do make independent movies - I just make them at Sony and Paramount.

Perfume is pretty good because nobody has to hold the product by their face or use it.

I want to make a movie that has enough impact that it's going to do what it needs to do. But I don't want to make a film that serial killers masturbate to.

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

Everything seems really simple on paper until you take a camera out of the box.
