Film is more of novelty, because I've done so much theater over many years. I'm in love with making movies. Also, I find it easier to remember three minutes of dialogue than three hours.

And I couldn't argue with that, even though I wanted to.

I've often felt that life is a hard deal and it's unrelentingly tragic and an uphill fight.

Why are our days numbered and not, say, lettered?
