You have to listen to the movie while you're making it. I think that's important.

I sometimes think it's better to go with a bad movie that is true to a certain point of view than to take something and make people try to like it when they're not supposed to.

You want to say as little as you can and get the most punch out of it, always with the knowledge that people are not in the theater to listen to your music so much as to respond to the movie. You're a part of that experience.

Whatever kind of movie it is, you're going to be more into it when you care more about the drama, or you'll have a better laugh if you feel like you know the people better.

I always think that I'm not going to be right for a movie or that there's someone else who can do it better.

I believe movies are better, the less you know going in.

The criticism is what I expect, honestly, because I'm criticizing myself every day when I come in here and watch that film. I'm trying to get better.

Maybe sometimes I have been wrong with some movies. Anyway, I try to do my best.

Usually, I don't want to sit down and listen to the director gas on about his movie. I just can't actually imagine myself sitting down and having that much to say.

You ought to love what you're doing because, especially in a movie, over time you really will start to hate it.
