Acting is real important to me. I love it, and it's something I care about.

There are certain aspects of acting that I don't like. I'm not a person who loves being on set. I mean, I know people that have their espresso machines in their trailers and they like being in there and they put pictures on walls. But I don't like it. I don't like sitting around.

I guess my experience with some stuff is kind of abstract.

How can you work in film and still see the overt racism that exists in film and not just be furious all the time?

I just I don't feel challenged by acting anymore. I don't enjoy the process anymore.

I like working all the time. I hate taking breaks. I don't like the weekends.

For as long as I've been making movies, I really don't know a lot of the technical side. I mean, I've actively and consciously tried to avoid learning that stuff. I just want to be open and receptive to what's happening in the moment, and I don't want to force anything.
