My career seems to be a career of non-specific subjects which are all over the place.

As I'm getting older, I want to make sure every film I do really counts.

I do like to make films with a political theme, but sometimes it's nice simply to make people laugh. That's the hardest thing to do in fact.

Some people like to do everything always the same thing. That's another way: To do the same thing.

I think moviemakers are dramatists.

A good year for me is when me and my family are in good health. I'm just lucky to have good years doing something I like to do.

I spend a lot of my time just developing material; or the company does. That material can come from a book, can come from a newspaper, can come from a discussion and sometimes it can come from a script that got passed over and is floating around.
