Happiness is a strange word. So conclusive. Happiness is a thing that happens for a moment.

The beautiful moment sits very close to the horrific one.

The lies are in the dialogue, the truth is in the visuals.

As a child, I remember being in the pool at this pool party and having to get out of the pool to watch Nixon resign. My first idea of a president was of a guy who was a crook.

I like to have a project. I live to have something to waste my energy on, something to think about. To figure out like a puzzle.

I'm 51. So I'm just saying, 30 years from now you're going to have a different outlook. That's what a midlife crisis is.

I find filmmaking to be a super lonely, alienating experience.
