I am pretty much a nerd, and I love to read.

I always loved movies as a child, and I love story. I got my degree in English. Film and story seemed, to me, the vector of the movie business. I really didn't know what 'the film business' meant, but I decided I wanted to be in it.

If you believe that movies are alive and talking back to you, there's a point at which it's very obvious they're not finished.
