I like to make all kinds of movies. I'd do 'Ocean's Thirteen' with the right script.

I just find it annoying that in these sequences [of the fight scenes], traditionally, there's music trying to pump you up. I don't like that, personally, as an audience member. This just reflects my taste.

There's nothing else exactly like it in any other art form, the orchestration of so many different elements. It's endlessly fascinating what can be done editorially. You can create meaning where there was none, you can create feeling where there was none, you can create narrative where there was none. Two frames can be the difference between something that works and something that doesn't. It's fascinating.

A movie is something you see, cinema is something that’s made.

In Full Frontal and K Street, I learned to take advantage of the mobility that digital provides.

I'm obviously really opinionated, but as a producer, you don't necessarily want the person you're working with to try to impress you - you want them to just be themselves.

When things go right it's hard to figure out why, but when things go wrong it's really easy.
