If you're like me, I get hooked into to-do lists, you know. I'll say I checked that off. Okay, I did that. And you have all these things you're doing.

I don't have too much time to jam with the rest of Hollywood.

I'd done about 10 movies before I decided I wanted to make acting the main thrust of my career.

You know, it's kind of a shame in a way but the more seasoned directors a lot of times have more difficult getting a job than first time guys. New kid on the block kind of thing.

With a labyrinth, you make a choice to go in - and once you've chosen, around and around you go. But you always find your way to the center.

Obviously it's fun to let yourself go and eat a pint of Haagen Dazs, but being healthy feels the best. Sobriety and health is the greatest thing.

You prep, you prep, you prep. And on the day that you film, you let all of that go. I try to achieve emptiness as much as possible - the Zen thing - to let the deal come out of that nothing.
