I'm not interested in doing a simple, straightforward action movie, unless they want to pay me lots of money.

It's difficult to make the interesting feature films that don't fit easily into a genre, even on modest budgets. It's tough to get those films made, but I'd rather try to get those films made than compromise too much.

If you try to do a look-alike and an impersonation, then that's just not conducive to good drama.

The thing about Hitchcock is that, however much one dissects him, he still manages to hang onto his mystery. You can never quite get to the bottom of him.

I'm looking for richness, complexity, and characters that have different layers and that you don't really get bored of.

My philosophy is always, "Let's get the spirit of the character." If people believe in it and the spirit of it, then it will work.
