A lot of directors don't want the pressure of a movie the size of Pearl Harbor. But I love it. I thrive on it.

Im at that point in my life where I definitely want to get married soon. Ive got my dogs as surrogates, but Im ready for kids.

I filmed my first little Super 8 movie by stealing my mum's Super 8 camera where I set some fires to some of the models, which actually caught the drapes of my bedroom on fire! The fire department came. I was grounded for three weeks and it was my very first movie.

I'm one of the few directors that actually shoots a lot in camera.

Maybe I have just a younger voice than many other directors.

I go out there to win. People don't care if you die in this business. The only way I get back is with success.

I look at directing as a sporting event. It's a race, a marathon. It's great when it clicks, which is why I push my crews so hard so we can excel.
