I like working with kid actors because they surprise you constantly. I mean, all actors do - but kids particularly.

Finding a writer who can write decent kids' dialog and finding kids that can act realistically and not 'cute' is an effort.

You don't paint pictures to put them in your attic. You want people to look at them.

I love 'Evil Dead 2!' Who doesn't love 'Evil Dead 2?

I go to a lot of independents and foreign films. I really try to keep up and see what there is to see. If you really love movies, it's the act of watching them that you really love. You can sit and watch a B-Western and have just as much fun watching that as you can a classic. That minute when the lights go down is the part where the magic happens, because you know this could be great. You're always kind of excited, like, "Here I am again in the church of movies, and Mass is starting.".

What's the shelf life of a 1931 movie? If it still exists, there will always be film buffs and a niche audience who will want to see it. But in terms of people even understanding in common usage, some of the words we use to describe these movies, I don't know how long that's going to last.

Editing is kind of a solitary job.
