I keep every script from every film that I ever made because it's like a workbook of that time in my life.

You were up at 5 o'clock in the morning, and then you'd ride in a caravan, because we didn't have big movie trucks or trailers that is the hardware of a movie camp.

We had two cameras, so they could turn it on and shoot as much as we wanted. You don't have to worry about wasting money on film. A lot more takes are possible.

Parents are your teachers until a certain point, and if they don't give you love, you'll go somewhere else to find it.

I'm more of like a recreational surfer, not a consist surfer. Some people get out every week or every day.

I was put on a surfboard by a cute boyfriend in high school.

I got to work with Gene Hackman for six weeks, side by side, 12 hours a day.
