"You know, in the film making business no one ever gives you anything."; "What are you gonna do, talk the alien to death?"; "There is a hugely underserved population out there... those who are the least capable of paying pay the highest."; "My mother was a housewife but she was also an artist. My father was an electrical engineer."; "It took me a long time to realize that you have to have a bit of an interlanguage with actors. You have to give them something that they can act with."; …"I watched a couple of really bad directors work, and I saw how they completely botched it up and missed the visual opportunities of the scene when we had put things in front of them as opportunities. Set pieces, props and so on."; "I love short trips to New York; to me it is the finest three-day town on earth."; "I lived in a small town. It was 2,000 people in Canada.

But I kept watching that guy over there who was moving the actors around and setting up the shots."
