Sometimes audiences want to see what we're doing to their world. It's our obligation sometimes to reflect it.

I want audiences to see me in different avatars.

Bad people sometimes do good things, and good people do really bad things or do something the audience disagrees with.

How can you tell your kid, 'You can be anything you want to be,' if you're not trying to do the same?

I make movies that audiences like, that I'd want to see. That's all.

I'm a big believer in,'If anyone can understand my politics, I've failed.' If you can get a sense of which side of the fence I'm on, then I'm not doing a service. I'm preaching, and that's not my job.
