When you make the kind of movies I make, you get weird letters from people.

You can make movies for a select audience, but you have to market it to them.

Some people go to the movies to be reminded that everything's okay. I don't make those kinds of movies.

For a number of years, I'd been around the kind of people who financed movies and the kind of people who are there to make the deals for movies. But I'd always had this naive idea that everybody wants to make movies as good as they can be, which is stupid.

It's a bad day when you don't get the work done that you need to get done or you don't get it done to the satisfaction.

There are some movies I can watch over and over, never get sick of. I'll put one of those on and be puttering around the house. Then a certain scene will come on and I'll just have to go over and watch.
