I'm happy to sacrifice a big pay cheque for my happiness, if that's not too corny a thing to say. It's probably more naive than mature to say that, maybe, but that's how I feel.

I feel more Jewish than I do Iranian.

I feel about 18, but my mind is much more mature now, so it's a perfect combination.

I feel happy to terrify kids.

The secrecy thing has gotten to be more and more prevalent in films, and maybe that's good. It's nice to go see a film and not know anything about it. Sometimes I feel like we know too much about films.

The single most important thing that I feel responsible for is that the company cherishes the work.
