I had been a kid that moved so much, I didn’t have a lot of friends. Theater really represented that kind of camaraderie.

Movies are the art form most like man's imagination.

We were raised in an Italian-American household, although we didn't speak Italian in the house. We were very proud of being Italian, and had Italian music, ate Italian food.

The internet in hotels should be free - and I really resent it when they charge you five dollars for a bottle of water beside your bed.

Anyone who's made film and knows about the cinema has a lifelong love affair with the experience. You never stop learning about film.

The great hope is that people who wouldn't normally make films will be making them. Suddenly, one day some little fat girl in Ohio is going to be the new Mozart and make a beautiful film with her father's camera and for once the so called professionalism about movies will be destroyed forever - and it will really become an art form.

I probably have genius. But no talent.
