All Human Interaction, You Can Break It Down To Incentives. All Relationships, At Some Level, Are Transactional. They're Fascinated With Incentives.

I Just Produced Criminal, This Remake Of Nine Queens, And One Of The Things That Appealed To Me About Nine Queens Is That It Was A Performance Piece, And That's The Most Fun.

I'm Not A Snob. If I Feel Like There's A Star That's The Best Person For That Role, Then That's Who I Get.

I Never Leave The Writer Behind, Because You Rewrite The Movie In Post, Or At Least I Do. I Always Do, And I Feel Like Anybody Who Doesn't At Least Explore That Possibility Is Short-changing Themselves. Editing Is The Most Fun And Most Exciting Part Of The Process.

I'm Mystified By The Stuff That Doesn't Work. I'm Mystified By What's Going On In The Critical Side, Too. Stuff I Like Is Getting Trashed And Stuff That Is Being Praised I Think Is Terrible. I Don't Really Feel In Sync With What's Happening, But At The Same Time, What I Think Keeps Me Afloat Is That I Try Not To Be, And Don't Want To Be, Very Indulgent. I Try To Make The Films As Lean As Possible, And To Not Spend A Lot Of Time Crawling Up My Own Ass Creatively.
