All of my films have been autobiographical - it's all I've got to go on.

Suspense films are often based on communication problems, and that affects all of the plot points. It almost gives it kind of a fable feeling.

As a gay person, my life has been marginalized.

I find the stuff that is exciting to me are the films coming out of Taiwan and Iran and France. So I have the feeling I'm not making the films that American distributors want to make.

I've been hiding crucial events in my life since I was 13.

You can understand why good publicists go on to run distribution companies: because the creativity involved is complex and nuanced.
