When I went into film, it never occurred to me that I wouldn't be able to do whatever I wanted to do. Maybe that was a good thing in the beginning. I had blinders on, and I charged forward.

When you're working in a collaborative storytelling medium, every step of the way, you're opening yourself up.

One of my first episodic jobs was on 'Twin Peaks,' if you can imagine that - one of the most unusual series ever.

I laugh at absurdity hardest, then stories, then observations, then bearded men on roller skates.

After all, we are not French and never can be, and any attempt to be so is to deny our inheritance and to try to impose upon ourselves a character that can be nothing but a veneer upon the surface.
