When I Write A Film, All I

Growing Up The Son Of A Director Has Made Me Very Aware Of The Various Turns That A Directing Career Can Take. Sometimes Your Films Turn Out Exactly As You Want. Sometimes They Don't. I Spent A Lot Of My Childhood On Sets. I Think As A Joke, My Father Gave Me A Line Of Dialogue In Each Of His Films During The Worst Moments Of My Puberty.

Most People See A Documentary About The Meat Industry And Then They Become A Vegetarian For A Week.

My Writing Voice Is Very Much Like 'thank You For Smoking.' It's A Guy's Voice. It's Very Masculine.

With Each One Of My Films, I'm Exploring One Of My Own Issues And I Try To Expose Myself A Little In The Film.

I Hate Movies That Tell People What To Think. I'm Proud That Democrats Thought 'thank You For Smoking' Was Their Film And Republicans Thought It Was Theirs. I'm Proud That Pro-choice People Thought 'juno' Was Their Film And Pro-life People Thought It Was Theirs.
