Making films is sort of like you're pulling off a magic trick. It's sort of like an illusion. It's not real but you want it to appear real, and all kinds of things go into that, from the clothes you're wearing to the make-up, to the light.

I love westerns, I'd love to make more of them.

I have a cycle that is not particularly cool, but it's a cycle: trash myself to reward myself.

Well, when we made 'Tron' there was no internet, no cellphones.

Normally, I love to go to the movies and when I see a character portrayed by different actors at different ages, it kind of pops a little bit for me. It brings me out of the movie experience. Now we have the technology to cure that.

The more space and emptiness you can create in yourself, then you can let the rest of the world come in and fill you up.

What are the aspects of yourself that line up with the character? You magnify those, and the ones that don't match up you kind of kick to the curb.
