Well, acting is cheap; I knew all these actors who weren't in the Screen Actors Guild yet, and it happened that they were all just about thirty years old.

I like to act. I work for scale. I don't have an acting agent. I'm in the book.

The media in America has become so cowed and compromised.

I probably wouldn't have done as many as I did in one year, which I did when I was trying to raise money.

As a screenwriter I'm often writing in genres where there have been thousands of movies; whereas when I direct movies they tend to be in between genres. They tend to have a little bit of a genre to them, but they're really about the people, and they're people we haven't met before.

I made it about a three-day weekend so people wouldn't have to change their clothes a lot. We didn't have an art department; we didn't have a make-up department.

Assumptions allow the best in life to pass you by.
