including last movies picture watched
I watched a lot of movies about teenagers, including 'The Last Picture Show,' 'American Graffiti,' 'Rumblefish.' It's one of my favorite genres.
investing love movies
I love making movies. But it's a lot of investing your heart and soul. It can be exhausting.
movies
Movies are a collaboration, I feel, so I didn't think of myself as an authoritative figure as much.
kids movies
Most movies use older actors, but I thought, if I could just put kids on camera and get them to be themselves, what could be easier?
deterred family felt movies people
I remember people - not my family - always asking, 'Oh, so are you going to make movies when you're older?' I felt pressured, and that always kind of deterred me.
appreciation hard movies
I have so much appreciation for movies because I understand how hard it is to make one.
fearless
As a teenager, I wanted to be sophisticated and avant-garde, and I was really judgmental. But when you're a teenager, you're fearless because you don't know the repercussions to anything.
feature figure great trying
I think what's so great about making your first feature film is that you're so naive in some ways; you don't know what to expect, and you don't question things as much because you're just trying to figure it out as you go.
alexander amazing david jane love spike
I love so many directors. I love David O. Russell. I love David Fincher, I love Alexander Payne and Jane Campion and my aunt. Spike Jonze. There are just so many amazing directors.
school
I went to a private all-girls school where I didn't feel I fit in.
given jeans normally wear
I normally wear jeans and sneakers, but given an occasion, I enjoy dressing up.
grandpa marches tells
My grandpa always tells me that 45-minute lunches are key because an army marches on its stomach.
liked
I like the pharmacy makeup. I always get stuck in that aisle... I've always liked looking at it.
fascinates vice
My only vice is 'Keeping up With The Kardashians.' I can't really explain what it is that fascinates me so much, but it just sucks me in.
