I think one of the privileges of being a filmmaker is the opportunity to remain a kind of perpetual student.

When I was young, my idea was to become a filmmaker.

I'm a bit of a late developer, generally. But the good thing about being a filmmaker is you still count as young all the way through your 40s.

It's a new business for me to be a filmmaker.

I actually grew up wanting to be a filmmaker. I wanted to make movies, and music was a detour, almost.

Film is something I've always loved since I was very young. In fact, I actually wanted to study to be a filmmaker when I was younger.

I already have legitimacy as a filmmaker and now I'm trying to do stuff that's just fun. Until I find a cool tangible subject again that I want to tackle.

I want to perform and be tested; I want the vibrant energy of the younger generation of directors and actors to rub off on me.

I think it's important as a filmmaker, as any person working in the arts, that you've got to try new stuff and challenge yourself and take chances.

You can mix in certain sensitivities as a filmmaker.
