I didn't choose BYU, I like to think it chose me.

But for me, it feels like a natural extension of what I've been doing: exploring relationships. Here you have two relationships and we can explore how difficult it is for people to be together.

Everyone has a story.

I see bits and pieces of me in all the characters in my films.

My business is can I create a world that's possible and could happen? I think that's the only thing that I have to do, and I think that I have done that each time.

People think my work is therapeutic. I don't see it that way. It's not like I'm saving money from a weekly therapy visit by writing down my life.

Everybody has the ability to be manipulative, to be hateful and deceitful.
