Generally I just pick music that I like. That's the part I really enjoy: When I get permission for the songs I want and put them into the scenes. It's always hard when you're doing a low-budget film, so it's great when you can get all the music you want to get.

I really wanted to emphasize the idea of the women being isolated and abandoned . . . and they weren't raised to take care of themselves, so they had to learn to survive.

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 just try to do what I'm interested in and hope that some people will connect.

More actors in action movies should be gangly because that way it's believable when they move through tight spaces.

The unexpected connections we make might not last, yet stay with us forever

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