My plan was to stay in Canada to make films.

I have as much artistic freedom in my television work as I have in my films.

I'm not an easygoing guy as a director.

When you meet me, I can be charming and intelligent and reasonable.

I have a bad reputation for being temperamental.

I wanted to make Canadian films, and I ended up making American films.

But when I direct I become possessed, a possession I've never quite understood.
