There's an audience expectation and I'm interested in how movies play with--and off--that expectation. That's what I'm interested in.

14. I don't have the Tom Hanks fans. When you make the kind of movies I make, you get weird letters from people.

20. You have a responsibility for the way you make the audience feel, and I want them to feel uncomfortable.
