What cancer does is, it forces you to focus, to prioritize, and you learn what's important. I mean, I don't sweat the small stuff. I used to get angry at cab drivers. It's not worth it.... And when somebody says you have cancer, you realize it's all small stuff.

When all the performances are excellent, critics understand it's the direction.

They are words you don't easily forget: I don't have good news.

Real movie producers arent this nice.

If you fight back and get hit, it hurts a little while; if you dont fight back it hurts forever.

I do my best not to have any expectations when I go into a movie because its not fair.

I have no idea why one of our most original filmmakers would want to spend two years of his life translating someone else's movie from Spanish into English. And it wasn't such a good film in Spanish, either.
