I would like to do a big movie that many, many people see but I just know I would be miserable if it didn't have something to it.

To get people emotionally involved in something intellectual and political is important.

What I think is new is the wealth of roles for actual women in television and in film. That's what I think is revolutionary and evolutionary.

I think sex is very interesting for most people, but I'm interested in sex as a way of communication, I'm not that interested in the fantasy version of a sex scene.

Some people would say you need what you need to work, but I need very little to work, because I learned how to make movies on tiny movies. It's all kind of easy for me.

Someone who's 26, 27, has a very different relationship to sex than someone who's 30.

I want to have some effect on the way the world works in whatever way I can, and I also want to have the power to help get the movies that I think are important made.
