My Father Was An Exceptionally Strong Influence

Well, I Design Costumes Because I Started With The Theater In Chicago, But Somehow A Few Lines Just Sort Of Fell To Me To Do It. And I Studied It In School And I Always Liked It.

I Like To Direct Movies, But I Don't Like To Goof Around For Eight Years Talking About It.

I Don't Understand How Somebody Wouldn't Have A Sense Of Humor About Themselves.

Films Take Too Long. There's Too Much Bs, Too Much Nonsense. If I Want To Do A Play, I Just Call The Theater, Whether It's Here, Or In Paris Or Mexico Or Spain Or London Or Whatever, And Say, "i Want To Do This, Are You Interested?" They'll Answer The Next Day. With A Movie, It's All, "oh, I See This Film As Blah Blah Blah." They Don't Know What You're Talking About, They Don't Care.

I'm More Boring And More Conservative.
