I'm a character-driven director, and I tend to fall in love with the characters in my movies and TV shows.
I think making a great action movie is one of the hardest cinematic endeavors. By definition, smart characters avoid action. Smart people don't go down dark alleys, but if you're making an action movie and you want to have an action sequence, somehow you have to get that character into that dangerous situation.
That's why 'The Bourne Identity' has that sort of shaky style, because for the most part, Matt Damon and I were sneaking around Paris and shooting where we didn't have permits.
At the end of the day, it's still a show about guys who ride extremely fast motorcycles for a living.
You can find truly original pieces of writing, but they're original because you go, "Who would have even have thought of that?," or, "Why would anyone ever want to go see that?"
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.
There is absolutely nothing that beats hard work.
My acting range? Left eyebrow raised, right eyebrow raised.

A victory? What have we won? We've won a rock in the middle of a wasteland, on the shores of a poisoned sea.
