Frankfurt, discussing a stuntman: He missed being killed in that shot be literally half an inch.

My life is a suitcase. I am the traveling Mexican.

If you don't take it personally, the partnership between producers and directors is very intimate.

Producing is great because you learn.

With every movie I produce, I learn something. I watch the directors. It's like the relationship you have with your children. I'm there to learn from my daughters. They are the perfect spirits.

I only produce things that have so much in common with what I like. I wanna understand what I'm doing. I wanna understand the instincts that are going to inform the story.

The only thing you can do as an artist is to come to the world, see what no one is doing, and leave behind one or two things that wouldn’t have happened without you.
