I Don't Go On Vacation. I Don't

Not Having Any Real Direction, One Writer Would Lead Me To Another.

When I Read The Book [the Adderall Diaries] I Loved It, And I Maybe Had An Inkling That There Was A Lot Of Good Material In There. I Didn't Quite Know At The Time How To Adapt It Into A Film, But I Hoped I Would Figure It Out One Day.

I Have A Lot Of Books Optioned. This One Sat Around For A While - Part Of That Was Just Because I Was Trying To Figure It Out, And I Didn't Realize I Needed Pam To Figure It Out - But I'm Not Somebody That Likes To Option Books And Then Sit On Them.

Almost All The Movies I've Directed Are Adaptations. And I Think What I Found When I Went To Film School, Where They Try To Push You To Find Your Voice Or Your Thing, Is That I Got A Lot Of Things Out Of Adaptations.

I Loved The Book [the Adderall Diaries] I Optioned It, I Think Some Years Ago. But There's A Lot Of Different Threads In The Book. It Starts Off As One Thing, Where He's Trying To Cover This Murder Trial, And Then His Own Life Starts To Impinge On That, So It Becomes Something Else. I Found That Fascinating.
