My mother gave me this book called Feature Films at Used Car Prices by a guy named Rick Schmidt. I gotta credit the guy, cuz he gave me the most practical advice. It empowers you.
You get a timeless cool card in New York.
My mom used to say that I became a fighter and a scrapper and a tough guy to protect who I am at my core.
If you're the type of person who has to fulfill your dreams, you've gotta be resourceful to make sure you can do it. I came out to California when I was 21, thinking my New York credentials would take me all the way. I came back home a year later all dejected and a failure.
You know when something feels so good but you're afraid to feel good about it? So you kinda hold back? Everyone says, Congratulations, you must be so happy. And you say something stupid like, I'm just doing what little I can with what little I have.
With age, you get to a place where you don't want to knock people out. You just want to give people a hug.
When you go to the movies with your whole family, it's a different experience. For some reason, it's something that you're all doing together and you take away something special in that.
I've turned down twentysomething million dollars for movies.
My mom insisted on multigrain bread and never allowed soda in the house.
It's insecurity that is always chasing you and standing in the way of your dreams.
You make movies for the people. If critics happen to like them too, well, that's a home run.
