moments moments-in-time
"No" is just a moment in time.
weekend class people
The Porsche was just a vehicle to get to another place. I used it to change people's perceptions of me. I had grown up really middle class. USC was filled with elitists, richies who would go skiing every weekend. So I pretended like I was part of that world - to be accepted.
believe purpose comfort
They say that life is tough enough. But I guess I like to make things difficult on myself, because I do that all the time. Every day and on purpose. That's because I believe in disrupting my comfort zone.
cultural guess zeitgeist
I guess this film is about how our cultural zeitgeist works.

WE ARE ALL TRAPPED in our own way of thinking, trapped in our own way of relating to people. We get so used to seeing the world our way that we come to think that the world is the way we see it.

My creative is curiosity conversations...All conversations reveal some inner truth, and the information we get from a computer is different than something that becomes a biochemical event, like a real conversation.
drama character elements
We're interested in complex characters and he's a complex character, [ J. Edgar] Hoover. I like these types of dramas. I've made a few of them and I'm also interested in power structures so it just has elements that fascinate me, and the more you learn about Hoover, the more polarizing you realize he is.
believe comfort zone
I believe in disrupting my comfort zone.
people curiosity notches
I wanted other people who have curiosity to understand they can kick it up a notch and it's a superpower.

moving night tvs
I started in TV movies and then had success in my move to features with Night Shift and Splash.
decision different want
I like learning stuff. The more information you can get about a person or a subject, the more you can pour into a potential project. I made a decision to do different things. I want to do things that have a better chance of being thought of as original. I do everything I can to disrupt my comfort zone.
interesting
I only make movies that are interesting to me.
