I learned very quickly that the hard thing in life is to make good films. Technically, filmmaking is the camera and the actor telling the story and that's what I'm more interested in doing.

Some people are directors and I think they should stay behind the camera.

I think movies glamorize violence, in the sense that they make it in a way that it's either cool or funny.

You need cliches. Cliches are what people respond to.

What I learned very quickly is that if you get it right in the first two or three takes, it's not going to get that much better.

I'll never be a good writer, and no chance of being a good actor.

I'm a Star Wars fanatic.
