For Me, I Believe In

'do The Right Thing' Was Like The First Film Where I Really Felt Comfortable Working With Actors.

I'm Worried Just As Much About Donald Trump As That Crazy Guy In North Korea - And He Has A Nuclear Code. I'm Worrying About That.

I Used The Principles Of Kickstarter To Make 'she's Gotta Have It.' We Filmed That In 1985 To 1986. The Final Cost Was $175,000. I Didn't Have That Money. It Was Friends, Grants, Donations. We Saved Our Bottles For The Nickel Deposit.

I Think Black People Have To Be In Control Of Their Own Image Because Film Is A Powerful Medium. We Can't Just Sit Back And Let Other People Define Our Existence.

I Think The Best Actors In The World Are Here In New York City. And This City Is Just So Vibrant The Energy Is Just Phenomenal. Great Crews Here. All The Technicians, All The Artists That Work In This Industry. I've Just Been Very Happy With The Body That We've Been Able To Do, Especially Those Films We Shot Here In New York City.
