I Think When You Pay Attention To

I'm Not Michael Moore. I Think Michael Moore Wants To Tell You How To Think. He Wants To Give You Answers. I Make Movies To Raise My Own Personal Questions And Not To Give Answers.

When It Comes To Casting, I've Been So Lucky. I've Worked With Unbelievable Actors Who Make Me Look Better Than I Am And Take The Written Word And Make It Honest.

I Think, Through Comedy, Sometimes We're Allowed To Discuss Things That You'd Never Be Able To Talk About In A Drama.

The First Set I Remember Was 'ghostbusters.' It Was A Scene In Which The Street Erupted. I Remember Even At Seven Years Old Thinking, 'wow, If You Direct A Movie, You Can Break The Streets Of New York.'

If Someone Else Made 'up In The Air' Or 'thank You For Smoking' Or 'juno,' I Would Have Wanted To Rip Their Head Off. I Need That Same Sort Of Passion For Every Project I Take On.
