To me, White Boy Shuffle is sort of like Catcher in the Rye, the story is so universal.

But in a broader sense, when I have more control, I want to expose people to new ideas.

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.

At 27, it's great to get to a place where I'm not an actor for hire anymore.

The idea of doing something that you've seen a thousand times before doesn't appeal to me.

I want to make movies that people talk about when they leave the theater, that aren't clear-cut, but effective and fulfilling in some sense.

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.
