“I think romance is a tool, comedy is a tool and drama is a tool. I really just want to tell stories that challenge the viewer, move people, make you laugh, perhaps push an idea about being open-minded but never settle on a genre or an opinion. I hate genre. I like movies that are original in their approach.”

Being the son of a filmmaker, you are aware of a career as a director. You don't think of it as just movies, but as a life.
I hate movies that tell people what to think. I'm proud that Democrats thought 'Thank You For Smoking' was their film and Republicans thought it was theirs. I'm proud that pro-choice people thought 'Juno' was their film and pro-life people thought it was theirs.
It's funny, I can sit through the worst horror film ever made but even a quite good romantic comedy can drive me nuts.
I really enjoy theater. I just went to see 'Death of a Salesman, ' and it knocked me on my ass.
