You always have nerves. And it's important to respect your nerves and your doubts. And then you have to ultimately overcome them.

If I'm able to catch the screening, there's a point in the film where, like clockwork, a portion of the audience gets really emotional and begins to cry. And that's very difficult to make happen.

If a religious person says "No, no, no" and they won't listen to science, it makes me think that they don't have faith in their own religion.

Some directors are very free and some directors are very specific. It seemed like doing a play.

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've noticed that sometimes when you keep things a little smaller, it's easier to focus on the creative aspects of what you're doing.

A kid now can practically record a song or edit a short film on his way to school. I think that will produce, perhaps, more less-interesting things - or you'll have to search more to find the interesting things. But I also think it's exciting.
