What Is Really Important To Me Is

We All Know The Power Of Film; We All Know There's Almost Nothing More Powerful Than To See People On Film That Look And Talk Like You, Like We Do.

Every Film Is A Political Act; It's How You See The World.

I Am Still Attracted To Stories About People Who Are Considered To Be On The Outside Of Society. I Still Seek Inspiration From Those Stories.

My Films, No One Else Will Do.

You Know, The Sad Thing Of Post-9/11, Which Was Of Course Horrific, Was That The City In Which I Felt Completely At Home For Two Decades, Suddenly People Like Us - Brown People - Were Looked At As The 'others.'
