You're considered superficial and silly if you are interested in fashion....But I think you can be substantial and still be interested in frivolity.

I'm always a sucker for a love story.

I never get myself in a situation where I don't have creative freedom.

It bugs me when they have people my age [28] playing teenagers.

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.

We were always around my dad, so he wasn't absentee at all. I don't think it was normal, but it was exciting. You always had lots of creative people around, and my parents took us everywhere.

I really didn't know what I wanted to do. I went to art school and tried a bunch of different things, but I knew I wanted to do something in the visual arts. And I'd always been around my dad's film sets, so the interest was there. But I didn't have the guts to say, "I want to be a director," especially coming from that family.
