I Wanted To Tell A Story That

I Was Very Careful To Cast Guys Who Were Very Good-looking And Very Fit And Who Had A Certain Sense Of Privilege About Them, Because With That Sense Of Privilege Comes Contempt.

Everyone Has A Little Bit Of Howard And Chad In Them. I Think There's Christine In All Men As Well.

I Felt, If I'm Going To Take On Some Of The Most Overdone Material, Which Is Men And Women And Affairs And Betrayal Of Friends, I Had Better Have A New Take On It. I Think My Films Come From A Desperation Not To Be Boring.

I Think Christine And Chad Are On The Opposite Extremes Of The Spectrum. Christine Is A Model Victim, And Chad Is A Model Perpetrator, And Howard Is Closer To The Middle.

I Would Be More Frightened As A Writer If People Thought My Movies Were Like Science Fiction.
