When you make a film, you sign a contract with somebody, and it's not only legally binding but morally binding. You agree to give this man a certain number of weeks of your life, and you just go for it as much as possible. Because, whatever happens, the film is going to come out, so you might as well try very hard to make it a good one.

I'm a late developer.

Baths are my favorite thing. I can have two, three a day.

You know those drugstore kits that tell you when you're pregnant? They should have one that tells you when you're sane.

I still absolutely love 'The Sound of Music' and anything with Julie Andrews in it.

People will now go to films with subtitles, you know. They're not afraid of them. It's one of the upsides of text-messaging and e-mail. Maybe the only good thing to come of it.

Successful films are very dangerous things.
