I have some sort of affinity for compulsive behavior. The most interesting stories come up from the people on the outside. They don't waste energy marching to the same drummer most of us do. It gives us an opportunity to look at things in a different way, which is the purest thing cinema can do.

Sometimes you're wrong, but if I'm a repeat customer, it means I must have valued the past experiences.

It's fair to say that if you have a lot of experience, your power is greater. You have more of an opportunity to roll up your sleeves with younger directors.

When I was a kid I was very interested in the idea of the will, finding out what you're capable of. I liked those kind of challenges.

I don't think people are interested in my personal life. I've never had a Hollywood life. I've always been a worker.

When you have something to work with, then you fly with it.

It's nice to go back with people that you already trust.
