I was once a shameless, full-time dope fiend.

The rules of suspense are that you do know, and you just don't know when. In the Hitchcock rules of suspense, you are supposed to know that there is a bomb on the bus that might blow up, and then it becomes very tense - but if you don't know that there's a bomb and it just blows up, then it's just a surprise.

Gay marriage is the last bastion of, to me... as a legal, ceremonial, sentimental and religious side, it's one of the last steps. Retaining your job being one of the earlier steps, like, not getting kicked out of your job because you're gay.

If you don't have the story and the unfolding of the trajectory of the saga, it's like getting in a car and not having any gas.

Yeah, I try to be really calm.

My department is to get actors to do stuff.

If a movie isn't released, it's one thing, but if you know it will be, it's nice to have closure and see it come out.
