I play drums and guitar, I snowboard, I do martial arts and acrobatics. I go to the movies every Friday.
I don't know why I'm drawn to anti-heroes, but I certainly am.
I'm a kind of private guy.
I don't want to make films that give you the answer. If there is a message to my films - and I hope there isn't - it's to be open-minded.
Everyone wants to be loved; everyone wants to know where they're going in life; everyone wants to have a sense of direction and feel the next day is going to be better than today. We just all deal with it in a different way.
I'm really specific in the way that I shoot. I've always had a very good sense of what I need in the editing room.
Being the son of a filmmaker, you are aware of a career as a director. You don't think of it as just movies, but as a life.
Make the world a bit better or more beautiful because you have lived in it.
Marketing is the devil.
There are so many really good role models out there, we just have to make sure that we don't glorify just one type. We have the first Latina Supreme Court Justice, Sonia Sotomayor, who is ready to be a force in kids' lives. I could name hundreds of people like her.
Jesus got me through the slums without getting murdered. I just walked with him as though he were really there and not a spirit just floating around.
