I have a problem with the blatant celebrity exhibitionism that happens in this business and being sold purely as a brand.

I dont have a problem with fame. I got into this business intending to be very successful, but I wanted it to be at my price.

You can take a handful of dollars, a good story, and people with passion and make a movie that will stand up against any $70 million movie.

Everybody acts like they're in a movie in most movies. That's why they stink.

I never turned down a movie because they wouldn't give me enough money.

Mostly I do films that mainstream Hollywood wouldn't touch.
