Movies that look safe are less interesting.

Screenplay is the toughest form of writing for me, because you need to be in present tense. You need to be describing things as they occur.

I love REAL set construction and think that sets are very important part of the storytelling and scope of a film.

As a first-time director, you cannot have final cut. But as a producer, you can have final cut.

And yet one carries the sins of his forebears as one carries their features in his face. One bears their blood, and their honor or their blight.

Survival often feels like an indignity.

I only produce directors and movies that I have a lot in common with.
