I don't think that digital technology will ever take away the humanity of storytelling, because storytelling is entirely, in and of itself, a wholly human concern.

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

I have demons you can't even imagine.

I have great appreciation for people who do anything well. I think that it's very difficult to do what you do well.

You can do something that walks a line, and invariably, whatever that line is, it will be crossed by people who don't know any better and want to ape the success.

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.

If I could be anyone, it would be Brad Pitt.
