Personal Quotes
"We are in the transportation business. We transport audiences from one place to another."
"If I made films for the critics, or for someone else, I'd probably be living in some small Hollywood studio apartment."
"Every time I make a movie I think that it's going to be my last one, I think that no one is going to show up. I always have this sense that they're all going to fail. I am scared to death."
"I think that there's a certain synchronicity, so far, with what I like and with what the audiences like. But I don't make the movies for them. I make them because I wanna go see them myself."
