Quote

I wanted to be a film student again, as a man in my 60s. To go someplace alone and see what you can cook up, with non-existent budgets. I didn't want to be surrounded by comforts and colleagues, which you have when when you're a big time director. I wanted to write personal works.

I wanted to be a film and television writer and producer.

I wouldn't not want to be a director and write as I wouldn't not to want to be a writer and direct movies.

The thing that fascinates me is that the way I came to film and television is extinct. Then there were gatekeepers, it was prohibitively expensive to make a film, to be a director you had to be an entrepreneur to raise money.

When I was in college, I studied business because I thought I wanted to be a director and producer.

There was always a part of me that wanted to be an old-time director. But I couldn't do that. I'm not a pro.

All I wanted was to be a regional-theater actor, to be in a company. I thought it would be a great life. I don't think I understood how difficult it would be.

When I was in college, I had only one ambition that one day I would like to be a director.

I'd like to make movies as a producer and a director.
