Compromise Is Part And Parcel Of Making

Casting Is Everything. If You Get The Right People They Make You Look Good.

What Makes Me Angry Is The Idea That People Would Be Going To A Movie Because Of What I Said About It. It Makes Me Feel, I Don't Know, Arrogant, Self-important, Self-aggrandizing, Whatever. Like I'm Being Used.

I've Always Said That I Myself Am Not The Best Audience For My Own Work, Because I'm Just Not That Receptive To Comedy.

I Admit There’s An Element Of Brutality In All My Work - It’s Part Of The Truth About Human Existence I Always Want To Explore - But The Last Thing I’m Trying To Do Is Put On Some Kind Of Freak Show, Inviting People To Get Off On Other People’s Pain And Humiliation.

If I Grew Up In A Different Background, I Could See Myself Getting A Gun And Shooting An Abortionist. That's My Job, To Imagine What Could Happen, What Can Make People Go In Different Directions.
