Life Is Good. Football Is Better.

To Me, Football Is Very Personal. Even As A Kid, I Looked At Football In Dramaturgical Terms. It Wasn't The Score That Interested Me, It Was The Struggle.

I Always Was Fascinated By Neat Nicknames.

Football Is A Sport Of Emotions, And We Have To Capture That In Our Films.

My Dad Hated His Job. He Sold Overcoats, But He Wanted To Make Movies. He Had A Failed Career Working With The Ritz Brothers - They Were Like The Marx Brothers, Only A Tier Below. I Always Had A Picture In My Mind Of Him In A Straw Hat.

I Blew The College Boards, And To Ease The Snub From Harvard Made A Tour Of Europe.
