"The beating heart of your story... that's not what shows up in a trailer. The other stuff is what sh..." — Doug Liman

It turns out that it's easier to do politics in a movie. People really don't want it in their TV.

I make movies for me and posterity. I'm more scared of history than I am of the studio.

I never want to repeat myself. I can't imagine anything else as upsetting as realizing I'm redoing something I did before. For some reason, when it comes to film, I'm very good at not repeating myself. Even though in the rest of my life, I'm constantly repeating my mistakes.

I probably shouldn't treat interviews as therapy sessions, but I don't keep a diary, so these end up being my way of keeping track of where I'm at and letting it all out.
