I have loved movies as the number one thing in my life so long that I can't ever remember a time when I didn't.

Unfortunately, every time I have somebody play an instrument, it's always like, they don't know how to do it.

I love Elmore Leonard. To me, True Romance is basically like an Elmore Leonard movie.

I didn't want my script to get too out of control like that. So I actually made it a point not to do stuff like that, to pretty - to keep it more sparse than it's been in the last few years, or the last decade.

I couldn't spell anything. I couldn't remember anything, but I could go to a movie and I knew who starred in it, who directed it, everything.

You get to be analytical about the process and now I can watch the movie and see all the different connection things and see all the things that are underneath the surface.

The way I write is really like putting one foot in front of the other. I really let the characters do most of the work, they start talking and they just lead the way.
