“I don't want to make films that give you the answer. If there is a message to my films - and I hope there isn't - it's to be open-minded.”

There are only so many movies you can direct. And yet there are movies that I want to make sure make it to the screen in as honest a way as possible.
When characters change on screen, it makes you feel better about yourself. You think, 'Oh I change too, I'm constantly becoming a better person.'
I really enjoy theater. I just went to see 'Death of a Salesman, ' and it knocked me on my ass.
When you're young, you want to make every kind of film: musicals, Westerns, horror. Slowly you begin to hear your own voice. I hope people receive what I do as small, personal films that are somewhat contrarian about their main characters.
