'School of Rock' is fun. Hopefully, I've fleshed it out with a few catchy songs and kept the spirit of the original movie.

I thought 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' was so interesting the way it was made and the texture of it.

I'm hard-pressed to think of a lot of great rock movies.

Trees Lounge is based on my own life. Both my parents like the movie. My father, of course, thinks it's a masterpiece.

'Forrest Gump' was great, it was fabulous. It lasted much longer than anybody thought, and brought me a degree of attention that no human being on the face of the planet deserves.

I loved doing 'Rock of Ages' in N.Y. and that, but its such a large scale, and so many things go into it.

I think the great country songs mixed with some of that bluegrass instrumentation - and surrounding all that with a little bit of a rock vibe and energy - is the kind of music I make.

I loved 'The Artist.' I thought it was fantastic.

My absolute favorite movie of all time is Pink Floyd's 'The Wall.' Nothing compares to it. I have seen it thousands of times and still watch it every few weeks.
