I don't think people have been able to deal with the fact that African American filmmakers can make movies about life and relationships.
From Tim Robbins
I have personal beliefs and they are sometimes reflected in the movies I make, but I also reflect other points of view.
I learned much more about acting from philosophy courses, psychology courses, history and anthropology than I ever learned in acting class.
I learned never to listen to acting teachers because they don't know what the hell they're talking about.
I like Spike Lee a lot. He's incredibly gifted and I don't think he gets the credit he deserves as a filmmaker.
I mean, what are they scared of? Who's going to vote for anyone from the Communist Party, for God's sake?
I ran spotlight. Swept up. Did box office. Ran the lighting board. But acting was the most fun.
I started getting on my feet and clowning around, and they ended up putting me in a play when I was 12. And I was hooked.
I was a sports fan, but I also went to peace marches.
I wouldn't even get elected. I'd probably deck a couple of people, too which would not play very well with the national media.
