If you want to make a great sports movie, don't put too much sports in it. It's the backdrop. It's the environment.

My whole life has been instinctual for me. I wouldn't do well in the computer world. My children look at me for a question and then they quickly look away because they know that I'm not going to know how to make Super Mario or do anything.

I've never had that fear of going against the grain.

When I read Thirteen Days I was moved by it. It was just a great time for the world, in terms of looking back in history and seeing how we got ourselves into trouble and how we got ourselves out of trouble.

I think I'm a pretty right down the middle guy. I just think that's kind of who I am. I'm not afraid of my own journey.

I work for the public, for the people who are paying to go to the cinema, rather than for the critics.

Field of Dreams is probably our generation's It's A Wonderful Life.
