I like to give dimension to shots inside action scenes. It's demanding because you have to rehearse a lot of things happening at the same time and frame all those things in a shot. But I feel like when you accomplish that then you've got a cool action scene.

You're looking for the best way of shooting it, but sometimes the best way of shooting it is changing the script.

People can't stand it when you deal with issues of race and class, and also sometimes the church, and you give a perspective that flushes out hypocrisy.

Well, I'm not that popular with the politicians, I have to say.

I don't actually like blocking actors. I prefer giving actors freedom. They don't have to step on a precise mark with me. Instead of giving marks to the actors I like to give marks to the camera.

How can I make a movie about the violence of the police if the police aren't going to let me film it?

I like some superhero movies, but I have to say that they all feel the same to me. I've seen them a million times. They're all the same movie.
