Success
"My three Ps: passion, patience, perseverance. You have to do this if you've got to be a filmmaker."
Perseverance

People

Favorite

Character
"I think one of the major things a director has to do is to know his subject matter, the subject matter of his script, know the truth and the reality of it. That's very important."
