- With film, you can feel confident that you're doing good work, but never know what it's going to look like.
- If you overdo something, you end up typecast. You always have to expand.
- We had a very normal, sort of ghetto, urban upbringing. My father was a bus driver and my mother was a seamstress and a substitute schoolteacher, off and on. So, that all adds up to no money.
- My first artistic love was drawing and painting.
