There are the people who overthink making mix CDs and playlists, and how that works generationally is all really interesting to me.

I realize how much I rely on the actors to really know the lines because I tend to forget what they are exactly, even though I've written them. I don't have them memorized. But when it's going well, there is that point where the actor starts to know more about the character than I do.

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

We expect forty-year-olds to have grown up at some point, and to be engaged and adult and take responsibility, and doing nothing would seem to go against that.

I love black-and-white movies that are about contemporary subjects.

It's kind of major, learning to drive. I feel like it kicked up other stuff in my life.

I think I've always been drawn to the notion of talk as cinematic.
