I actually went to film school and was making experimental films for a short time, so it wasn't such a leap.

For eight years I did effects for other movies until I got my movie made.

I wanted to make a movie, because the whole life of the movies appealed to me. You work hard for three or four months, then you don't work at all for a couple of months.

I made lots of short films, about nine or ten short films. And then I made a television film called 'This Little Life.'

There were very, very large sums of money that I made when I was very young - 15 million published works and a great many successful movies don't make nothin'.

I made my first movie when I was five.

It took me 20 years of making movies to learn how to do it.

I had no interest in really becoming an actress or doing that kind of thing... I just knew that I wanted to do something in making films.

Well, every movie is an experiment. And the only way you can grow at what you're doing is to take chances. You can't try to stick with what worked last time.
