It's kind of a crazy art form, movies, in that you have to get it right the day you do it, generally.

I live in Manhattan now, because, in a way, it was my fantasy.

I'm a huge proponent of therapy and analysis, but it's something that, in a nonprofessional way, can be abused.

Being articulate, my parents could make anything sound reasonable.

A lot of black-and-white films generally have a color version that will be used for TV.

Peter Bogdanovich is a good friend.

I always wanted to write movies that I'd direct. I didn't come at it from a writing standpoint more than a directing standpoint, except that growing up, I didn't have the opportunity to shoot as much as I did to write.
