I think the best thing I learned from drawing comics is that it's a great exercise in concision.

I like films to be complete in their written form.

Yes, I am very prolific.

If a film is very clever and well-written, that's what gives you freedom as a director.

Sometimes it only takes three words, so long as they're the right words, to direct an actor in the right way.

I did the drawing and writing - for five years. I made a lot of short films the whole while and I made a promise to myself in front of the mirror that I would stop drawing when I signed my first contract for a feature film.

Married people from my generation are like an endangered species!
