What do you spend $200 million on, with a film? I can't wrap my brain around that one.
It's not an easy journey, to get to a place where you forgive people. But it is such a powerful place, because it frees you.
Don't wait for someone to green light your project, build your own intersection.
...when you put on your shortest dress, please leave some mystery in it. That's the difference between a miniskirt and a ho-skirt. A ho-skirt shows your Frisbee. A miniskirt shows just enough to cause some mystery. What these young women lack is mystery.

I was a very poor young black boy in New Orleans, just a face without a name, swimming in a sea of poverty trying to survive.
