I always expose the apparatus. I show how the film was made. I acknowledge the filmmaker and the filmmaking.

Sometimes you are ahead of people and sometimes people have blind spots. They can't see the world and they can't see what they do.

I believe that sitting naked across from your adversary in a steam room makes negotiations more productive.

I don't necessarily believe in the ideology of cinema verité. I think by the very fact that you have a camera there you are affecting the story and you are influencing it.

I love being a lawyer more than I like writing.
