And we had the perhaps unfair advantage of not having to worry about what an audience was gonna think. We were in a vacuum. We were making little short films, really.

On the last couple of movies I made - big-budget Hollywood movies - I really missed being able to create my own material.

A few years ago, I decided I wanted to be home with my family.

My own personal taste in films as a member of the audience was not completely in line with films I was doing.

I pulled out of making movies in about '96 or '97.

I had spent years working in radio at different stations in Toronto; I wasn't in the stage company of Second City.

I don't limit my taste. There's some jazz that I like and there's some opera. I've been listening to what was essentially country music, but it crossed over to rock.
