film contracts fine
For me, I don't even like to promote my films but I have to because it's in the fine print of my contract.
laughing down-and bananas
I want to sit down, and I want to laugh. Nothing works better for me than watching somebody slip on a banana peel.
romantic-love goal sometimes
I bought into the myth that you are not complete without romantic love, without a mate. And it can really distract you from your goals. But sometimes you have to take a leap.
kids missing
I love my work, but there is no price you can put on what you miss when you are away from your kids.
night jeans hair
I can tell you that, you know, when I went to my first movie premiere, it was my own movie, and I wore the best jeans I had and my favorite top. You know, I made sure my hair had some wave in it because I braided it the night before myself.
art risk today
I'm fascinated by how Hollywood has changed since I started. Today it's about immediate delivery. There's less risk and less art.
horse drawing age
I grew up loving horses. I was relatively obsessed, starting with my rocking horse at age 2, all the way through my painting and drawing phase.
desire world prove
I've always had this unresolved desire to prove that I could get a Ph.D., or contribute something else to the world.
important attention enough
I have just enough attention to feel glamorous and important.
long kind term
I don't really know how to relate to a long-term day-in day-out kind of comfortable relationship.
men way mouths
Americans are like Pac Man. We just eat our way through the day. There's always something going into the mouth.
new-york parent mama
When I was about seven, I started touring the globe as part of New York's La MaMa theater company - without my parents!
new-york growing-up father
When I was growing up in New York City, my father was a taxi driver for a time.
mother thinking years
I think that directing is the ultimate martyred task of filmmaking, that it has nobility to it. It takes three years to make a film, for the most part. I think it requires the attentiveness of a mother hen.
