When I was a child, I was obsessed with the great conjurers. Not the guys that made an elephant disappear. People like Cardini...the magic, small, intimate, inches away. That's what interests me about film. It's the small moments. Not achieving larger than life status.

If we weren't groomed to be adolescents, we would be terrible consumers. We'd be responsible with our money, we'd buy things that last, we'd insist on quality and we'd spend our time in pursuits that had meaning for us, rather than just plugging ourselves into the consumer engine. We're like catfish at the bottom of Hoover Dam with our mouths open, and our tails just get bigger and bigger.
