When we have that scene where I shoot that huge machine gun, my first thought was "Why does anybody want this? What is the point of something like this?" I know some people feel powerful or whatever and I'm just like, " I feel like I want nothing to do with this."

I think my strength is always been in being very natural. I think Shakespeare and things like that would be more a stretch for me.

It is exhausting to be running around pretending to be scared at night - It sounds so wussy actory.

I'm compulsively on time. It drives me insane when people are late.

I really have no preference between TV and film. I think that each individual project is its own thing and has a very different style.

The best directing style is the one that lets me do whatever I want. Seriously though, I like to be challenged and I like to collaborate. I love finding the medium between what I think and what a director does. I hate when a director uses the "my way or the highway" approach. But it also sucks when they tell you everything you do is great and offer no input. It's a fine line a director has to walk. It is a hard job.

I never had any film training. I went to Northwestern. I studied education and theater. So it was all theater training.
