I still fall asleep with the TV on, because I'm used to falling asleep with people yelling 'Action!' and 'Cut!

('Eraserhead') may seem like a dark film, but my father and I watch it, and all we do is laugh. It was Disneyland everyday on the set. That's when I fell in love with film.

Some people are just not going to like me and they're not going to like my work. But that doesn't mean I'm a bad person.

I love how a story can help someone discuss something they otherwise would not.

I'm a huge fan of Akira Kurosawa, a big Hitchcock fan.

Trust yourself so that the mistakes you make are the ones you've made and not something you've made because you were afraid to do what you wanted to do. Own your mistakes, then you can own your successes.

I have gone insane. I won't be talking with you for a while.
