I'll Be Vilified If I Shoot A

I Think It Would Be Very Boring Dramatically To Have A Film Where Everybody Was A Lawyer Or Doctor And Had No Faults. To Me, The Most Important Thing Is To Be Truthful.

We’ve Gone Through The Names—negro, African American, African, Black. For Me That’s An Indication Of A People Still Trying To Find Their Identity. Who Determines What Is Black?

I Tend To Favour Films That Have Multiple Plot And Story Lines, Multiple Characters And Ensemble Pieces.

Critics Like To Build You Up, Tear You Down, And Then, If You're Lucky, Build You Up Again.

I Live In New York City, The Stories Of My Films Take Place In New York; I'm A New York Filmmaker.
