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

I do think it's a very good way to describe what a great actor does. You're both acknowledging the authority of the director and the necessity of the actor to push back and find their own voice.

I used a video camera, and shot on film cameras at school and stuff, but I had a lot more training as a writer. I kind of live like a writer. I get up and I write. I've done that my whole life.

There's always some generational-guys-hanging-out movie that is made every few years, I think, and some of them are great.

Peter Bogdanovich is a good friend.

When I make a movie, I have both a specific and vague, amorphous dream idea of what the movie is going to be. Of course, I don't actually know what it's going to be, but I'm still striving to get to some place with it.

I like shooting in New York because I have such a connection to the city. I have so many memories there.
