When I hire actors I believe in their abilities.

I wasn't good enough to be a professional soccer player obviously but that was my first goal in life.

In editing, it's amazing how you choose the in and out points. What you cut on is everything for creating tension. It's amazing how expanding a shot by five seconds can just ruin the tension.

Sports teams, people who follow sports teams, religion, churches, work - any company, I find that people just generally have a need to belong to something larger than themselves.

A big fear of working with an actor that's never been a lead in a film before is that you're going to have to work really hard to pull a performance out of her.

The trappings of a religious cult tend to fall into candlelit ceremonies and robes and group chanting and singing and prayer.

I would like to do a sports movie.
