What's the difference between Hollywood characters and my characters? Mine are real.
I ain't Martin Luther King. I don't need a dream. I have a plan.
Any time you talk about the look of the film, it's not just the director and the director of photography. You have to include the costume designer and the production designer.
'Do the Right Thing' was like the first film where I really felt comfortable working with actors.
I think it is very important that films make people look at what they've forgotten.
'25th Hour,' like a lot of my films, takes place in New York City. I've been very fortunate to make films in the city that I live. I mean, it's great going home at night instead of being on location.
