I Wish People Could Get

Definitely, There's A Lot Of Trouble You Come Up Against When You're Acting And Directing, About Your Performance. Sometimes It's Hard To Be Objective About It. I Will Tend To Get Two Takes And Walk Away. I Don't Belabor It, And It's Important To Me To Have Someone Who Says, "you Know What? You Should Get Another One, And Maybe You Should Try It Like That".

I'd Prefer Not To Act In The Film I'm Directing. I Think, Though, As An Actor, You Do Learn How To Turn Things On And Off Quickly And Kind Of Compartmentalize. You Learn To Accommodate The Camera And The Other Actors, To Notice Where The Boom Is And Where You Mark Is, And Be Able To Repeat Something A Few Times.

I Didn't Have Any Ambition To Produce Big Mainstream Popcorn Movies.

Part Of Me Longs To Do A Job Where There's Not A Gray Area.

Otherness Is A Big Thing For Me. I'm Always Drawn To Characters That Live Lives That I Couldn't Lead.
