I find myself in situations a lot where I have to say to someone, "This can be better," and it's hard to say that.

Men tend to define themselves by what they do, and so if you're dealing with a character who's trying to figure that out, or multiple characters, then there's something there for guys, too.

Truth and facts have to trump partisanship. There has to be something that's true regardless of what your angle is on it.

Your take on things is what is either going to make you somebody people talk about or no.

I like a lot of different kinds of movies, I like a lot of different kinds of paintings.

Never done an explosion, but I have had explosive diarrhea, and that was very, very real. Good thing I have my trailer.

[I watch] Fincher, Spielberg, Cameron, McTiernan. Just people who are good at staging action. I like to know where I am. I don't like the kind of cutting where you don't know where you are.
