I often joke that I straddle psychosis and neurosis, and that being an artist keeps me in the middle, so I can work between the two.

I have a massive phobia for schedules and calendars. I need people to tell me where I need to be. I can't bear to see it in black and white. I think it's a fear of being pinned down.

I've made lots of big decisions in my life that have shocked people.

Having children is exciting. Life puts the past into perspective.

My favorite part of the whole filmmaking process is working with a fantastic cinematographer, a fantastic actor or actors, and then just creating emotions and stories. I get so excited by that. That's the part I'm utterly addicted to.

I seize all opportunities with two hands. Everything that's happened to me has taught me to live in the moment as much as possible.

I love karaoke. I love maudlin country ballads. In another life I'd be Loretta Lynn.
