I love mentoring young filmmakers and girl filmmakers.

My grandparents lived in Hollywood, and I was surrounded by the romanticism of movies ever since I was a child.

My connection with Basquiat was really in Los Angeles, which really was a whole different world to what he was experiencing in New York.

I love Billy Joel. I cry sometimes when I hear 'The Stranger.' 'You May Be Right' may be one of the greatest songs ever written.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.

I always dreamed of writing in an orchestral context. But when you finish a piece, you want to hear it. So we played everything with Phish.
