I Tend To Read Things That Are

Even Though I Occasionally Appear On It, I Don't Watch Television.

I Love Watching All Sorts Of Different Types Of Movies, But That Doesn't Mean They're Necessarily Movies I Want To Be Making. I'm Not Sitting Around Saying, "man, I'd Really Love To Direct A Western." That's Just Not Something I'm Probably Going To Do. But, I'm Just Looking To Work On Things That Both Feel Professionally Exciting And Personally Relevant.

And As A Filmmaker, I'm Trying To Unhook Myself From This Idea That Unless You Have A Brilliant, Long, Enormously Lucrative Theatrical Run, That Your Movie Somehow Failed. And I Don't Believe That.

The Purpose Of Fiction Is To Combat Loneliness.

I Find Myself Going Out Less And Less. When You're 22 And See Older People Start To Do That, It's Depressing, But Once You Hit 30, You Think, 'wow, I've Been Working All Week - It Might Be Really Nice To Stay In!
