People in movies and TV seem to be completely dumb to what's going on in the real world and relationships.

In the movies I've done for Sony, they've never given me quadrant specific notes ever. They say "Keep making it. Just make the movie you want to do." Especially in a comedy because comedy is so tone specific.

When I did TV shows and my other movies, I never try to do it for anybody. I just do what I think is good no matter what the genre is.

I don't like having characters as props. I never want a character to be a prop.

I don't think anyone says "Wow, the best sex I ever had was when I was 16 years old."

You go through your career and you find people and cast who you love and you go through and keep them and you never want to let them go because you have a great repertory with them.

I like to deconstruct things, deconstruct genres and stories.
