trying
I'm not really trying to be too much of an actor or anything.
films loose
Like, I'm a big fan of films from the '70s, like Cassavetes and things, where they just keep the dialogue really loose and just kind of roll, you know what I mean?
larry richard
I really like Larry Clark's films, as weird as that is. I like Richard Kern films.
came maybe
I like writing my own stuff. If a book came along I would maybe do that.
thinking careers favorites-things
I think it's cool when Scorsese will pop up in a movie or something like that. I never want to make a career out of that or anything. I like directing. That's my favorite thing.
thinking want film
I think every filmmaker wants... I don't know about every filmmaker. I certainly want my films to just exist. I want them to be judged for what they are and analyzed, accepted, criticized, whatever you want to call it, on their own terms, not as part of some mall-cop genre.
knows ifs
I don't know if there's anything intrinsically funny about Tae Kwon Do.
art real acting
I grew up doing martial arts, and it's one of these things where I always kind of liked acting, but I was never real serious about it.
