People are sheepish when they approach me.

Granted, there are times when, for business reasons, you do something that's more mainstream. But even then, I try to find something that has a dark or subversive aspect.

I have three sisters and I've always wanted a brother, so I was really interested in that notion.

The ultimate 20-year plan is to be living in the Caribbean, writing, living off the land, eating from the ocean and probably smoking herb.

Tarantino's stuff in its inception was all about finding a way for him to break into Hollywood.

The idea of being in a hugely successful movie that I don't like would be just as bad as being in a film that I love that no one sees. I wouldn't want the kind of success that felt cheap or that I didn't own.

But I'm not particularly comfortable around guns.
