Quotes

  • Sundance is going to be a defining moment in my life. But the unfortunate thing about Sundance is, when you have a film there, you can't have the opportunity to see other films.
  • The thing about Moby Dick is that, at heart, it's a very simple plot - there's only one white whale in the ocean. When you're a boy growing up in a hostile home, you imagine it's unique: it's happening only to you.
  • I always intended the title, 'WARRIOR,' to be about spiritual warfare and warrior lives outside of the cage.
  • My brother and I were separated when I was a child; we went with different parents.
  • Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to make films. That's really all I ever wanted to do.
