If A Film Is Well Made, Then

The Older You Get, The More Yourself You Can Be And The Less Worried You Are About What Other People Think.

My Parents Really Instilled This Idea In Me Of Being Your Own Person, Almost To The Extent That I Couldn't Do Wrong. I'd Get A Bad Grade And They'd Be Like, "no! What You Did Was Great!"

I'd Always Find The Positive In Someone.

When I Was Young, I Was Really, Really Obsessed With Gena Rowlands And John Cassavetes. Because My Mom Was A Projectionist In College, She Was Somehow Able To Get A Real Projector. And She Had Some Connections, So She Would Get Real Prints, And We'd Put Up A Sheet. The First Movies I Saw Were To Kill A Mockingbird [1962], Gigi [1958], A Woman Under The Influence [1974]. Then When I Was Old Enough To Be Able To Rent Movies, I Went Through A Very Big Cassavetes Phase.

I Love Westerns. John Ford Is One Of The 10 Best Directors.
