I was really impressed with Naomi [Watts]. She was a producer, and she was doing things that I wasn't really aware of. The way she was able to switch from handling problems to shoot a really difficult scene, I think is a real testament to her true ability.

I've worked with a lot great directors who have huge resumes, but I'm really trying to be active in my career in supporting the new generation of cinema. I like taking some time to try to support and be a part of that.

I remember when I was a kid looking at different types of film and really examining the grains of them. I remember even looking at the ink streaks.

I'm really, really blessed. Not only am I blessed to have found that I love making films, but I'm also insanely blessed to be able to do it. I have to remind myself that when I'm complaining.

I'm doing a record that has a story that runs through all of the songs, and then there is also a film that goes along with it.

I think that it's important not to take [acting] too seriously. It's all pretend. It's a strange job.
