I'd like to be Dakota Fanning when I get young.

I love the way L A. leaves you alone. I can go home, read all day, and nobody bugs me.

I'm interested in directing movies about situations that I've lived, so they are almost a personal essay about what I've come to believe in.

I prefer to commit 100 per cent to a movie and make fewer films, because it takes over your life.

I absolutely love religions and the rituals. Even though I don't believe in God, we celebrate pretty much every religion in our family with the kids.

I was a literature major in college and that was my thing, books.

There is nothing more beautiful than finding your course as you believe you bob aimlessly in the current. And wouldn't you know that your path was there all along, waiting for you to knock, waiting for you to become. This path does not belong to your parents, your teachers, your leaders, or your lovers. Your path is your character defining itself more and more every day.
