I believe in communication; books communicate ideas and make bridges between people.
I like to look at how people work together when they are put into stressful situations, when life stops being cozy.
I prefer to watch people.
When people approach me about my films it is usually to tell me how much they hate them.
There were a whole lot, I bought every blues record I could find, it wasn't just one or two people. My vocal influences were Ray Charles and Bobby Blue Bland.
I think the blues will always be around. People need it.
I think it will always be around it just takes one person to make people aware of the blues.
Music is very spiritual, it has the power to bring people together.
I hadn't realized the number of people that are still interested in listening to what I am doing, people I would never know about if not for being online.
My favorite favorites are people like Bunuel, Fellini and Charlie Chaplin.
I really love sort of classical cinema where people were telling stories with very little dialogue, and people were using the camera in a really interesting way.
Like I said about Freaked, people tend to find these films, and I think that in the end the cool thing about a movie is that it can be sort of burnt temporarily, but then it's burnt into the fabric of your culture.
I'm one of the few people who really like Eyes Wide Shut.
Most people are so busy knocking themselves out trying to do everything they think they should do, they never get around to what they want to do.
Just because society, and government, and whatever was different 100 years ago, doesn't mean that people didn't have sex, pick their nose, or swear.
