When you love something it's not a job anymore.

If you can't take a hit, you're not going to last long, that's for sure.

Surprises are good. I'm not of the thinking where you tell the audience everything. Sometimes I don't even want to see the trailers. You see the trailer, you've seen the movie.

I collect names for characters. Names are valuable; they can be your first source of insight into a character.

I'm trying to keep up with what's happening in this turbulent world.

I live in New York City, the stories of my films take place in New York; I'm a New York filmmaker.

I don't think I'm a total pessimist, so I think you can find hope in all my films.
