“I often find myself feeling that filming music is somehow the purest form of filmmaking. This crazed collision of sound and images, the intense collaboration, these incredibly cinematic performances. And for the nights you're filming, a non-player like me gets to feel somehow part of the band.”

“When Silence of the Lambs did well commercially it was more than anything. My partner Ed Saxon and I were just so relieved that finally we had made a movie that had made some money!”

“They're out there, this appalling idea that there are companies that profit - not just profit but profit enormously - through war.”

“I thought labs were such cinematic, spooky spaces.”

“I use cinematic things in a theatrical way on stage, and in film I use theatrical techniques in a cinematic way.”

“The cinematic universe will not worry about 'Legion.' They will not worry about these TV worlds at all.”
