Sometimes it's interesting to see something that you're not used to seeing, which is the main ingredient of life, and it's removed from the usual entertainment. I think it's important to give the opportunity to people to witness the life of somebody who was not public.

I don't like movies that are too manipulative. A lot of movies thrive on really pushing your buttons and making you hate the villain.

Michael Jackson will always be my favorite pop musician; he was for years and years until his death, which was horrible to me. So I like pop culture. But to me, even if it's popular, there is a quality in the music you have to be able to appreciate.

Every movie I do is challenging for me. There is some element of imaginative that you wouldn't have in a typical movie.

People always say there is competition in nature, but I think that because we are human, it's not only competition. Because we are human we have something other than competition - sharing, helping others, or being oneself. Competition is really kind of ugly.

In the '90s movies were so serious, and so stylistic and slick that I could not identify with them.

I'm always excited to work with actors.
