I suffer from Irish-Catholic guilt. Guilt is a good reality check. It keeps that ‘do what makes you happy’ thing in check.

Quite honestly, it's too tough to get your movies made and then also to get out there and sell them.

I'm always aware of who my core audiences are and I serve that niche.

I feel Irish-Americans are the forgotten minority group. Nobody else is making films about them.

The way I see it, when I go out as an actor, it should be on a type of film I'm never going to do as a director.
