I love Frances McDormand so much. I love her career. And I think it's fun because she gets to do comedy as well as drama.

'What Doesn't Kill You' is a really great movie that was little seen but, I think, is one of my personal favorites.

'Being Mary Jane,' I really want everybody to see what we've done. I've never watched a project that I've worked and thought, 'Damn that's really good. It's so juicy, and it's hit after hit.'

For me, the filmmaking has to be about the dramaturgy.

I like movies about longing and desperation, and dark and light things, stories about people struggling to raise children, and to have relationships and be intimate with each other.

Any film which views the darker side of life, which is death with a sense of humor, is very much to my taste.

'Chasing Amy' was an amazing role, but then after that, I went and did 'Big Daddy' and you're the girlfriend or you're the best friend. I wasn't getting the Nicole Kidman roles.

'Virgin Suicides' was such a big movie to me as a teenage girl. It blew me away.

'How to Survive a Plague' is history-telling at its best. It's a film I'll show my two children, now toddlers, when they are old enough to understand. It's a movie that I cannot forget.

I absolutely love Nicole Scherzinger. She's worked really hard to get to where she is and really knows her stuff.
