I just love good movies. And not every movie you're going to end up in is always going to turn out right, but at least walk into it with the right intention.
I just don't want to do crap movies, man, because I just love that I can get up and talk about them and talk to journalists about stuff that I'm really proud of.
One of the great joys of being able to write something you can make, if you get certain actors you want and love, you're kind of buying yourself a front row seat to watch them work.
People love boxing, but you've gotta wait two or three years for your favorite boxer to have a fight.
You have to stick to what you love and purse that at all costs. Don't choose money first; it won't make you happy.
I love what I do, but it occurs to me I may have handed over a large portion of my life to fiction.
Pittsburgh felt like the perfect size of a city to me. There's enough to do, but it's not like living in a circus. I also really loved how sports-enthusiastic Pittsburgh people are: how proud of their sports they are.
I love the idea of real-life experiences finding their way into fiction. I think that's really cool.
I love so much what I do that I spend so much time thinking about it, and then I go home, and then I'm thinking about it, so it's nice sometimes when a movie is over, and then the niggling feelings about whether you've did it right or not start to ebb away.
