In a movie, you're raw material, just a hue of some color and the director makes the painting.

A little recognition is not a bad thing because it means people appreciate your work. The only problem is when you can't walk down the street or have a meal without people looking at you. I want to be the one looking at people.

I'm just looking as always for something that's stimulating and I hope to find a good story that's a challenge, whether it's big or small. Or that it finds me. I don't have like a career plan. Maybe I should, but I don't.

Can you join, ask sincerely for affection without sweaty hand of expectation, understanding and accepting if it never is given?

My job as an artist, as I see it, is to understand and in some cases to take on various ways of thinking about people and the world that are different from my own, sometimes radically different.

I think every family is dysfunctional, and some manage to control it better than others.

I like naturally occurring film grain, and what happens to film when it's under- and over-exposed.
