Biografia

(On Raising Arizona) It really was the root of everything that Mark and I always hold ourselves to in making movies. That is to say that Raising Arizona is the most inspired movie that I have ever seen.

I loved movies. They inspired me more than anything growing up and wanted to do for others what those movies have done for me. I do a lot of other creative stuff but am not very good at it.

I guess I need a hobby. Currently my primary hobby is complaining.

I do own a unicycle, which I use for workout purposes as opposed to doing tricks.

Everyone I know who is having success in film right now is there because of persistence.
