You Can't Write Something To Please Someone.

I Remember Being At School During Morning Meeting And Looking Around At Everybody, 350 Kids, Saying A Prayer. We're All Very Young And No One Knows What It Means, And I Remember Feeling Strange That People Were Just Repeating Words That They Didn't Understand. I Refused To Participate. For Some Reason I Always Rejected It, But Respectfully.

When I Hire Actors I Believe In Their Abilities.

When I Was A Little Kid, I Loved Horror Films. I Always Liked Being Scared.

A Big Fear Of Working With An Actor That's Never Been A Lead In A Film Before Is That You're Going To Have To Work Really Hard To Pull A Performance Out Of Her.

It's Sort Of One Ongoing Process Where Writing Ends And Directing Starts.
