When you deal with a film that takes place in Europe, and you're going to work in English, you'd better work with European actors.

When the small independent film, which depends on its artistic appeal rather than wide commercial distribution by an MPAA member, is now denied access, the playing field becomes unfair and uneven.

Obviously, In The Heat Of The Night was a landmark movie because the timing was perfect. It was in the middle of the Civil Rights Movement.

Every generation deals with the breaking down of its tradition, and I think that they rediscovered the film.

I'm in the mood for another Moonstruck experience, for another romantic comedy.

Betrayal... is my favorite subject.

I work with a lot of movie stars.
