If movies are set in New York, they really should be shot in New York.

As a director, I've been able to combine with what I've learned as an actor and as a producer: it melds quite nicely into what I feel like I should have been doing all along.

Documentaries have always inspired me in narrative filmmaking.

I came to New York to be an actor and I became a film producer first.

Every time I act in something, I learn something about what the director is doing. One feeds the other.

I think we were the first picture to cut on Final Cut Pro. So we were the guinea pigs, because we got a deal on the system. But with that comes all sorts of technological problems I couldn't begin to describe.

Every movie is wildly different. So many of the problems are the same, but they take on different guises.
