I really think the biopic thing so rarely works, because people's lives don't have a dramatic shape that can be satisfying.

It is interesting to be here and to see that for certain actors they have to live in a way that you think of nobody living anymore except for in small towns. They have such elaborate double lives.

I do think that's so much a part of what being a director is - in working with actors - to really try and be sensitive to what each actor needs to get to where he wants to be.

I think it would be fun to write about movies again.

It's an odd thing to go to New York to shoot a movie that is set in Indiana.

Problems emerge and some people try to sweep them under the rug.
