I learned a lesson which I didn't heed: Don't put yourself in your movies. It's too much.

One of the secrets to life is saying yes to change and allowing things to transition, but I also think you have to mark the time and give thanks for all that it gave you.

We don't have a lot of space in our imaginations to allow people to expand what they do.

I have great people surrounding me and helping me out. I'm totally in love with directing movies and I hope to do more of it.

My trick is the trick that everyone knows: Work really hard and prepare.

In writing scripts now, having made a film, I'm much more conscious of what it means to shoot and edit a movie, and that affects the writing.

I sometimes don't know what I'm writing when I start writing it, on some level.
