Might I be ridiculous? Might my career in music be laughable? Yeah, that's possible, but that's certainly not my intention.

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've been in clubs. I don't like being in an enclosed place with really loud music, and a lot of drunk people. It's not my idea of a good time. It's just such a miserable life.

The less someone knows about me, the better, because my intention is to play a variety of characters.

I don't think one should be comfortable standing on a stage with people applauding and laughing at every stupid thing you say.

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.

Well, I think that you know, I threatened myself with quitting after every movie. But I think everybody does that, right?
