I want to try and work in different genres with different types of actors, on small movies and big movies. – Sam Mendes

If you go to Sundance, the experience that Ive had there as a viewer is… theres like a hundred movies there, and youve got to figure out what movies are sold out, what can you see. Sometimes you go to see movies that you dont know anything about because it just works into your schedule. – Tim Heidecker
