I'm glad I have an outlet. I don't think I would put my aggression elsewhere, but working on the projects I have worked on, you tend to benefit personally from trying to wrap your head around the way other people look at the world.
I try not to discriminate against genres.
I like all kinds of movies, I love movies; and I always wanted to try and make one.
It's misogynistic in nature to try and control a woman's sexual presentation of self. I consider this an issue that is bigger than (one) film.

You can't make a movie for everybody. You can't go into it trying to alienate people, but you have to assume that you're going to.
There's a lot of pressure to be the lead of a film. I have done it. It's not my favorite way to work.
I felt like I was going crazy as a kid. I wanted to be man, get a job.
There used to be a candy called 'Bonkers,' which I believe to be the greatest candy of all time.
I have a friend that is a WWII buff, and we sat and talked a lot about stuff like the war and the reasons behind it, and you now it's all in the uniform. Once you're in it, it usually does all the work for you.
I always wanted to do a comedy, but I wanted to pick the right one. But it came down to working with Steve Carell. I've wanted to work with him since I met him years ago as a kid.
Working with someone is the best way to get to know someone, especially if it's a creative endeavor.
I've wanted to make films since a really young age. It's always been my passion.
I've lost perspective on what I'm doing. I think it's good for me to take a break and reassess why I'm doing it and how I'm doing it. And I think this is probably a good way to learn about that. I need a break from myself as much as I imagine the audience does.
