My dad told me, 'Your movie's never as good as the dailies and never as bad as the rough cut.

I've always written my own scripts, I really like doing everything from the beginning and taking it all the way through, I've probably learned that from my dad.

Forget the audience, make what you want to see

I love that feeling of when it's touching and it makes you happy but there's a melancholy or bittersweet glaze to it.

I like to write things to be personal, so I just put what I'm thinking about at the time.

It’s about misunderstandings between people and places, being disconnected and looking for moments of connection. There are so many moments in life when people don’t say what they mean, when they are just missing each other, waiting to run into each other in a hallway.

I wanted to make a love story without being nerdy.
