Filmmaking is a very complex form - ya know, acting, lighting, screenwriting, storytelling, music, editing - all these things have to come together.

All tales, then, are at some level a journey into the woods to find the missing part of us, to retrieve it and make ourselves whole. Storytelling is as simple - and complex - as that. That's the pattern. That's how we tell stories.

... the midpoint of each film is the moment when each protagonist embraces for the first time the quality they will need to become complete and finish their story. It's when they discover a truth about themselves.

Filmmaking is a very privileged art form. It costs a lot of money to make these things.

I'm not very confident about acting, unlike my music. But after winning this award, getting this recognition, I'm very happy.

I guess I need a hobby. Currently my primary hobby is complaining.
