I am utterly bored by celebrity interviews. Most celebrities are devoid of interest.

I had no interest in hanging out with other celebrity kids, and I was certainly no cheerleader, so I started mixing with outsiders. I was very into all kinds of experimentation.

The celebrity reviewers are people we contacted who, on a genre-specific basis, we assumed would have an interest in doing this.

I'll tell you, I think that the Internet has provided an enormous boost to film criticism by giving people an opportunity to self publish or to find sites that are friendly.

The buried code of many American films has become: If I kill you, I have won and you have lost. The instinctive ethical code of traditional Hollywood, the code by which characters like James Stewart, John Wayne and Henry Fonda lived, has been lost.

Many thrillers follow such reliable formulas that you can look at what's happening and guess how much longer a film has to run.
