There Have Been A Few Little Films I'd Done Like That That The Studio Just Decided Not To Do Much With, Films Like Anywhere But Here [1999] Or Jeff, Who Lives At Home [2012]. Thank God People Find Them Later And Love Them. I'm Always Really Drawn To People Who Have Seen These Strange Little Films.

I Just Love The Fact That That's The Way Life Is. When Something Horrible Happens, You Do Find Yourself Laughing In Weird Places In The Midst Of Grief And Crying In The Supermarket When You See A Cereal That Somebody Used To Eat. There's Just No Way Of Guarding Yourself One Way Or Another. Everybody Grieves Differently, And There's No Right Or Wrong Way.

What I Like About The Meddler Style Of Movie Is That It's A Fairly Lighthearted Romantic Comedy, But There Are Hidden Moments Where Something Happens That's Unexpected, That Hopefully Have Some Kind Of Emotional Resonance That You Didn't See Coming. I Love When A Film Does That.

Most People Are Not Affected By [the Death Penalty]. It's Like How Many People Are Actually Sent To Iraq And Afghanistan? Such A Small Percentage.

Being A Catholic, I Was Drawn To The Mystery Of The Latin And The Smoke And The Mirrors And All Of That. That Part Of My Disposition Definitely Did Lend Itself To Finding My Way To The Back Door Of Some Artistic Pursuit.
