In grade school, I was a complete geek. You know, there's always the kid who's too short, the kid who wears glasses, the kid who's not athletic. Well, I was all three.

I've got more freckles than just about anybody. My children didn't get them, thankfully. They have tiny little freckles.

When I was seven, these kids in the alley behind our house in Omaha called me Freckleface Strawberry. I hated my freckles, and I hated that name. I thought it was humiliating in the way that only a seven-year-old could hate it.

If I had to choose between clothes and furniture, I'd choose furniture.

People think that the directors direct actors. No. Really, what the director's doing is directing the audience's eye through the film.

When the computer and tablets are all about playing games, that's not interesting to me.
