My taste in watching things runs from dramas and low-budget films to high-end fantasy/science fiction.

I've always loved animation and animated films.

It has to be absolutely believable. It's also going between images and scenes with nudity and sexuality that would be seen, in conventional terms, as kind of sexually exciting. It's up against things that are much more medical and gynecological, and notoriously we, as a culture and a society, have some issues with that kind of thing.

With vampires, there is such a great tradition that you suddenly find yourself a part of. Each generation reinvents what that means to them.

I think when you work on a Woody Allen film the actors become a real company, probably more than on any other film.

The more you think that you are watching a show about sex, the more you ultimately are watching a show about the challenges of just connecting with human beings and being intimate.
