Simplicity of living gives you sensitivity of character. A lot of people told me that leaving L.A. and moving to Volcano (district of the Big Island) would ruin my career, but that's my kuleana, my business.

I always thought success was from inside, so it was how diversified you were as a person and how cultivated or how much you cultivated yourself.

'Rapa Nui' is about the conflict in the 1600s on Easter Island. It's about the clash of the royal clan and the working class.

I don't have a problem with enthusiasm.
