I Always Liked Making Things, And Then

There Was One Moment, And It Happened In School. I Had A Big Final Exam - We Were Supposed To Write A 20-page Report On This Book About Houdini. I Probably Would Have Loved Reading It, But I Didn't, So I Just Decided To Make A Little Super-8 Movie Based On It. I Tied Myself To The Railroad Tracks And All That. I Mean, This Is Kid Stuff, But It Impressed The Teacher, And I Got An A. And That Was Maybe My First Turning Point, When I Said, 'yeah, I Wouldn't Mind Being A Filmmaker.'

Son, Are You Happy? I Don't Mean To Pry, But Do You Dream Of Heaven? Have You Ever Wanted To Die?

I Always Liked Strange Characters.

I Don't Look At My Films Or My Old Drawings Much, So That Was An Interesting Way To Kind Of Reconnect With Myself A Bit.

I've Always Been More Comfortable Making My Decisions From The Subconscious Level, Or More Emotionally, Because I Find It Is More Truthful To Me; Intellectually, I Don't Think Like That Because I Get Uncomfortable.
