“Just in the past few years - since I've been making movies, which isn'...” — Neil LaBute Quote

Just in the past few years - since I've been making movies, which isn't a very long time - you now have a culture that is fascinated and informed about the box office in a way that sometimes filmmakers weren't even.

I make movies I want to see.

I didn't choose BYU, I like to think it chose me.

Everyone has a little bit of Howard and Chad in them. I think there's Christine in all men as well.

I was very careful to cast guys who were very good-looking and very fit and who had a certain sense of privilege about them, because with that sense of privilege comes contempt.

Failure at the box office of some of my earlier films led to a lack of opportunity to play main lead in good films.

It really wasn't until halfway through my career that I learned had to jab and to box and to kickbox.

I didn't know box office was a thing you could possess but I don't have it. I go up for lovely roles and people with this nebulous thing called box office get them so there isn't much I can do about that unless you know where I can get some box-office myself!

I don't like to run. You will not see me running on a treadmill ever. Ever! I like boxing, though, so if I can go to the gym and box for 30 minutes, I will.

Often with television, particularly with lifestyle entertainment, they really try and box you in.
