I'm quite neurotic, usually. But when it comes to work, I become extremely focused.

I'm a very independent person, I love being alone, writing and doing music and stuff.

I'm dreaming about making movies for eight weeks, because it's a luxury. But time is money. That's the reality.

I want to be positive and say: everything I've written will get made eventually.

Most of our life is miscommunication, and when you add a language barrier to it, it just becomes total mayhem and confusion... It just adds to it with all of the cultural differences. It could be an American family meeting another American family and you could still have a total clash. With family, it's like visiting another planet.

Very quickly I realized that directing is a combination of things: It's visual, it's directing the actors, it's telling a story. And people don't always mention this part of directing, but it's also knowing how to really edit something into something that makes sense.

My therapist in Paris once told me that being creative is a better form of therapy for me than sitting on his couch.
