I don't dictate, you don't dictate to Stevie Wonder, not successfully.

I tend to favour films that have multiple plot and story lines, multiple characters and ensemble pieces.

I didn't dream about being a director. I didn't know I wanted to do something with film until the summer between my sophomore and junior years at Morris College in Atlanta, Georgia.

I don't get tripped up in technology. I use technology as a tool. 'Oldboy' we shot Two Pro 35mm. For 'Da Blood of Jesus,' we shot digitally. We shot the new Sony F55. It's a 4K camera.

Stick around long enough, you'll get some grace.

It gets dangerous when you start allowing people to validate your work.

I think people who have faults are a lot more interesting than people who are perfect.
