I mean the cool thing about the movies is that you get to try on these different personalities and different styles.

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.

I am a big fan of the old Howard Hawks films from the 30s and 40s, I was a big Hepburn and Tracey fan for a while and Woody Allen films that are a very different kind of romantic comedy.

That's my advice for indie filmmakers: Marry a supermodel.

Spielberg gave us three takes before saying anything to us. Since then, I do that, three takes, to let the actors find their rhythm.

Woody Allen would go for seven years without a movie and then make one that makes no money.
