Lee Daniels

I wanted to make a black 'Dynasty.'

People enjoy making fun of people who are famous; they love putting people down.

To come into my world, I've got some M&Ms and some potato chips, and I'm asking you to move furniture. We're making a movie. We're making it like we're putting on a play.

I love Hindi films.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

I just had an idea that went right over my head.
