Pierrot le Fou is something I keep coming back to. Its so surreal but still really engaging - it proves narratives within narratives are a landscape that can be pursued well.

I don't believe that narrative works when it's trying to teach a lesson or speak a factual truth.

I came to filmmaking because it's my passion. I decided I can't have it distorted or marred by someone else deciding what it should be.

I will be making films, and I'm going to keep working, no matter what I have to do. And I don't plan to ever ask for permission from anybody.

I don't read books on how to write screenplays just because I'm stubborn. So it's all sort of made up.

I never got into 'MacGyver,' but 'All the President's Men' and 'The Conversation' were big for me.
