They say you can do honest, sincere work for decades, but you're given in general a 10-year period when what you do touches the zeitgeist - when you're relevant. And I'm aware of that, and I don't want my time to go by.

I like voice-over in films, and most of my films have been voice-over films.

Life mixes tones all the time.

I think cynicism lasts. Sentimentality ages, dates quickly.

The most heinous shift in American films is that they reinforce good things like 'couples' and 'relationships.'
