If I’m feeling something, I have a lot of different ways to express it, you know? I can write an article about it. I can write a screenplay about it. I can act in someone’s thing.

After a brief period in which I had let many a Southern Californian convince me that it was all 'in my mind,' I am once again officially allergic to dogs.

As a person, I'm anti-violence.

The reflexive allergy to L.A. that a lot of New Yorkers have, I feel like it's kind of nonsense.

I don't love large groups of men. I've always felt like something terrible could happen when there were no women. If there are women around, it feels like there's less of a chance that anyone will get stabbed.

I learned to choose my battles. Sometimes I let my producer deal with something that I didn't want to deal with.

Each film is difficult, in its own particular way. There's a unique set of challenges on every movie.
