I'm happy - at times - making films. I'm certainly unhappy not making films.

Any time you take a chance you better be sure the rewards are worth the risk because they can put you away just as fast for a ten dollar heist as they can for a million dollar job.

If you can talk brilliantly about a problem

You either connect or you don't connect. It's not the end of the world. It's a movie.

The director's job is to know what emotional statement he wants a character to convey in his scene or his line, and to exercise taste and judgment in helping the actor give his best possible performance.

You either care or you don’t.

Everybody has their black moments.
