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

I think all my movies are about transitions to some degree.

Other people have worked with big studios and maintained control over their movies. I see no reason why it wouldn't work for me.

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

You can be aware that something is idiosyncratic, and give it to a character, but keep doing it.

I get a lot of responses to my movies. Some people say, 'Oh, I thought it was really funny - I hope that's okay!' And my answer always is 'Yes. It's totally okay.'

It's always really special to be at the New York Film Festival, and always a real privilege.
