I find a lot of writing happens when you're not actually at the computer. So I carry a notebook.

I really like my first movie a lot, "Kicking and Screaming." I think it's a - I'm very pleased and proud of that movie, but it wasn't the - it wasn't "Citizen Kane" right out of the box, you know? It wasn't "Sex, Lies and Videotape."

When I start a movie, there will be certain films that I watch again just because the vibe seems right.

I like to try to shoot in the city in a way that allows the city to go about its business while we're shooting, and that's always a challenge because unfortunately people on the street don't know not to look in the camera or interact with the actors.

I think anxiety is dangerous, but it makes you think it's your friend.

If you don't feel good about something, you don't shake it off easily.
