Also CSPAN is really the great treasure of the media as far as getting information.

People who have expertise or the luck to have rehearsal time with cameras have it over people who don't.

I listen to XM radio because I can get so many overseas news stations.

I need six weeks of rehearsal and women need nine months and it took me 15 years to figure that out

And I don't want to use my troubles as an example of what to do and what not to do.

The art is about opening, it is not about prejudice, it is not about contempt prior to investigation. It's about endlessly trying to keep from having contempt by admitting that you don't know. Even if you know a lot compared to some other people, usually, I think, the honest experience would be: "God, how little I know! And how much I need to have compassion for myself and for other people."

I'm not comfortable with walking the red carpet in a tuxedo and seeing all the women with their boobs pushed up and all the men dressed as penguins - particularly when the subject of your film is the nature of violence and humanity.
