It's a risk casting anyone against type or what they're known to do. But there's one thing better than having a great actor, which is having a great actor who's never done what you're asking him to do. He's hungry to get out of the trailer every day and hungry to test himself.

Actors get pigeonholed very quickly, particularly movie actors. In the theater, one is more used to casting people against type and trusting that their talent and skill will get them through.

Thank God I don't live in Los Angeles. I think if you're there the whole time it just gets out of proportion and you lose touch completely with reality.

If you lived through the shooting of Jaws, you can live through anything.

You're in the lap of the gods. If people go, they go, and if they don't.

When I drive through a field, I want to see green grass sometimes, and I don't want to see black and white.

I've made movies that cost less than one car chase.

One movie is only one movie. I want to have a lifetime of making films.

This is the first time in 10 years I don't know what I'm doing next, and I'm rather enjoying it. Soon I'll be climbing the walls no doubt, but right now, it's not clear, I'm just enjoying the freedom.
