I've learned to live without sleep.
From David Seltzer
When you watch television shows, as good as they are, like 'Joan of Arcadia' and 'Touched by an Angel,' everything is this kind of mishmash of faith but not any specific religion.
I think people wanted to see some specificity in faith on TV.
My role model, my idol, was Francois Truffaut.
We shot 'Lucas' in 42 days; that's a lot of filming.
I want to encourage the non-star, low-profile film, and maybe we've got a chance.
Teenagers have no advocate. I think any other minority so maligned by Hollywood would have pickets around the theater saying, 'We are not just idiots.'
I would say it's not as hard as writing, because when you're a writer, you walk right into the pit all by yourself, but when you're a director, there are at least 80 people who scream, 'Don't do that!' when you make a mistake.
I think the success of any movie is dependent upon it being a singular vision.
There is an inalienable law. Whenever a character on screen pities himself, the audience stops pitying him. They will cry so long as the character doesn't.
