If this movie threatens or challenges you, then there's something else you should look at. People are so scared to touch on these issues. The good thing about this movie is that it forces you to do that.
Just because you're not famous, doesn't mean you're not good.
I had a good imagination and I still have one; a child-like imagination that hasn't gone away.
The only really conscious decision I made was to cast my net wide and if the work was good, to do it.
The good thing is that I'm always honest.
I found to my surprise that the man who was closest to him when he died had been a good friend to me in the last 10 years of his life. Yet after Delmore died, Milton never talked about him.
A magnetic personality doesn't necessarily indicate a good heart.
Some of the best interviews are when it's with a creative peer,
I'm so surprised by the turnout today and a little overwhelmed, so thank you very much. How grateful we all are to be here and to thank you all for letting us invade your streets and film here. We know that at times it can be inconvenient to have a film crew come in to your neighborhoods and we just wanna say thank you.
I was curious about making this movie because the genres are put together, ... I'm attracted to stuff I think is going to be difficult to pull off, and the stuff that I'm a little afraid of.
I have never been so impressed with anyone in rehearsal in my life as I was with her,
Fortunately, I'm in a perfect position for me. I'm able to work, have a wonderful time, and I'm not really a celebrity, and that's great.
I find the whole disdain for ageing crazy.
I think everyone's experience with a terminal disease is so deeply personal and unique to the person, the context in which they're living and the relationships that they have.
