Maybe when I stop making movies, I'll understand my work better.

I've done TV and I've done film, and I'm not snobby about it. It's about the project.

Film people are coming into TV, because they can't get any work.

Working on a film is so great because you have the luxury of more time when you're on a movie than when you're on television.

I've done a lot of TV, but not film.

Well, TV series tie you up. You can't do films while you're doing a TV series.

In some ways, you could argue, television is doing far more interesting work than the movies. It's more fulfilling.

You don't knock television, even if you don't always like what they make of your work. It makes all the difference between being an also-ran writer and very famous.

Thank God for television. I've been able to consistently work in television even when people say, 'Oh my God, I haven't seen you since this film or that project.' At least I'm working. It's very difficult to get that next movie role. I'm grateful to have the television world accept me.

Films are artifice. We're telling stories on film. At the same time, when it works, there is a real tough immediacy and spontaneity to it, and a punch.
