People that went to art house theatre have more options, I used to go, but now think any movie can be delivered in a red envelope three months after it's released so why not watch it on my flat screen in the comfort of home.

Well, the studios don't really want to take those risks right off the bat. They'll take the risk after they've seen the finished product and say oh yeah we want that. This is a great film but they are hesitant to take the risk when you just see it on paper.

If you feel you have a film that's valid, you stick your ass on the line.

Theatrical is fantastic. I don't think anything will ever replace the big dark room, the screen and the popcorn. You can kind of do it in your home if you have a nice screen, but it's not the same thing.

From now on, any flick I'm ever involved with, I conduct critics screenings thusly: 'You wanna see it early to review it? Fine: pay like you would if you saw it next week.'

I feel the film companies should pay for proper advertising to see that the movie will sell, instead of putting it on our backs.

It's a nightmare to sit and watch a film that I'm in. There's a horrible inescapability to it.

The trick about the theater is at the end of the day you cannot take any of it personally.

I'm anxious to make another film.
