I think by around the time I was about 8 or 9, the idea of filmmaking probably took hold. I made little Super 8 extravaganzas when I was a kid, the first being my own version of 'Romeo and Juliet,' and where I played all the parts except for Juliet.

But when I was seven or eight, I did my first little piece of acting.

I had been working early in my life in films - since I was 11.

I was 40 when I did my first movie.

By the time I was 10 or 11, I knew I wanted to make films.

I'm the third generation of my family in the film business, and I grew up with a deep passion for movies. I made my own Super 8 films when I was a kid and always loved the editing process.

I started theater when I was three, and I started doing professional acting when I was nine.
