Paul Thomas Anderson

I don't think the competition's so rough, within the majority of movies made in Hollywood.

I always had a dream about trying to make a movie that had no dialogue in it, that was just music and pictures. I still haven't done it yet, but I tried to get close in the beginning.

My dad was this sort of avant-garde guy who did all kinds of weird things. He was a true original and anybody who met him never forgot him.

In the final analysis, it is your decision to make, but it doesn't move as fast as I'd like it to move.

I love 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' and 'Extras' and also 'The Trip.' That had all the nuances of friendship and finding things out about their lives without it being too much plot-driven.

One Moment in Time because I think it describes me as a person and how I felt about being on the show.
