Directors Tend To Be More Underrated Than Overrated Because It's A Quiet Job And People Don't Really Understand It.

I Was Raised By My Mom. She Taught Me How To Be A Gentleman; Nobody In The Movies Taught Me. I Think People Are Raised By Their Parents. If You're Raised By Movies, It's A Whole Other Set Of Problems.

I Just Don't.
