I'm always aiming for some magic in films if I can find a mystical quality either in a song or in a moment or a character's intention.

Just film what's there, trust what came before, one hour before, and make it easy.

In a career, when you hit 40 and you've done a lot of this and that, you want to try some new things. I feel like that as a director, too, from one film to the other.

I look back, and I've got a couple of films, and I'm happy.

There's a way of filming where you can get rid of the vanity and of trying to make something beautiful.

I'm from the 'less is more' school. I had to be in the 'more is more' zone with 'Dallas Buyers Club', so I was out of my comfort zone, but I had to trust that.
