There were movies that always made me want to be a director. You see brilliant scenes and the way the emotions were handled. I thought, I'd really like to do that.

When I made my first film, I didn't think of it as directing, so it wasn't like I set out to become a director.

I really, really love directing films.

I fall in love with every film while I'm doing it. I fall in love with the directors, I fall in love with the process. I don't think I could do it otherwise.

I don't necessarily see myself as an experienced filmmaker just because I've been in a few movies.

Directing films is incredibly exciting to me.

I love directing. It's where my heart is, and it's the way my mind works.

I think I'm drawn to films more as a director with a directorial mind even as an actor. I make movies to make the films, not to act.

I've done a little directing, but I love acting more.

Directing a film was something I always wanted to do, something that seemed an inevitability in my development as an actor.
