It's a difficult thing as an actor not to repeat one's self.

I keep everything very simple. I like telling stories.

Being movie director you've got the art department, you've got the actors, you've got the camera department, you've got make-up and hair, and props. You've got your finger in all these pies, and you're making sure that everything cooks at the right temperature.

I try my best to find variety in what I'm doing, but there's a lot out there that's the same.

'Cause I do so much homework I'm good to go on the first take; I don't want to rehearse. I like the element of what's unpredictable of that first take and nobody knows what's going to happen, and I'm a big fan of that.

I might have been curious about actors' lives when I was growing up. That's human nature.

I don't like to plan anything ever because it never seems to work. I'm just really...let's just get this film out and see how this one does.
