Personal Quote:

I can only speak as a director and a storyteller. You have the story to tell and you must tell it with as much honesty as you possibly can, that this in fact did happen. You can't say, 'This only happened because we're making science fiction.' This is the story, fellows, so it has to be told to the best of our abilities... See more »
