I love stage actors. The pool of world class actors that have done theater [is big], there's a higher opportunity of grabbing somebody from that pool.

You don't have your film finished when you have your director's cut finished. It's just a bunch of green screen.

People who come to see my movies, you're coming to see a drama masquerading as a genre piece.

I'm so consistent that my director's cuts are usually 20-25 minutes longer than the released version of the movies.

People break down into two groups. When they experience something lucky, group number one sees it as more than luck, more than coincidence. They see it as a sign, evidence, that there is someone up there, watching out for them. Group number two sees it as just pure luck. Just a happy turn of chance.

I've been asked to direct pilots for a lot of shows.

See what you have to ask yourself is what kind of person are you? Are you the kind that sees signs, sees miracles? Or do you believe that people just get lucky?
