    • Quotes
      [on directing Robert Downey Jr. in The Judge (2014)] He loyally followed the material. When an actor becomes a movie-star, always in the spotlight like Robert, they tend to swing really hard and go for it, but he didn't do that. He had incredible control and I was profoundly impressed.
