I Had Never Held A Baby In

War Is So Complex; Human Nature Is So Complex. There's No Filmmaker Who Has Ever Figured It Out Perfectly.

I Like To Work With Artists From Around The World. There Are So Many New Inspiring Filmmakers. I Had The Privilege Recently To Work With Ethiopian Filmmaker Zeresenay Mehari And His Wife On The Film Difret. They Are That Unique Balance Of Very Thoughtful Conscious Filmmakers Who Are Also Brilliant, Original Artists.

I Grew Up As This Very Carefree, Happy Kid Then Things Turned Darker For Me. Maybe It Was Because I Saw That The World Wasn't As Happy A Place As I Had Hoped It Would Be For Me.

I Do Believe In The Old Saying 'what Does Not Kill You Makes You Stronger.' Our Experiences, Good And Bad, Make Us Who We Are. By Overcoming Difficulties, We Gain Strength And Maturity.

I'm Just Glad I Was Able To Return To Some Of That Innocence And Beauty I Had As A Child When I Started My Own Family, And My Children Brought Me Back Some Of That Spirit.
