I think each movie-making process is a very exhausting and satisfying and fulfilling experience for me.

We experience problem-solving sessions as war zones we view competing ideas as enemies and we use problems as weapons to blame and defeat opposition forces. No wonder we can't come up with real lasting solutions!

Sometimes I get so bold and I'm so confident about what I'm doing that I actually try to be more of a dork because it's a really liberating feeling to experience what it's like to not care.

You may never learn the names of any of the people you talk to in a dog park even after many many hours spent there with them and many hours of conversation.
