Everyone related to me in my circle was from church: church friends, church school, church activities. All my friends weren't allowed to watch MTV or go to PG-13 movies or listen to the radio, so I didn't really know anything different. That's how I was raised.

My whole life has been movies and religion. That's it. Nothing else.

Very often I've known people who wouldn't say a word to each other, but they'd go to see movies together and experience life that way.

I've seen many, many movies over the years, and there are only a few that suddenly inspire you so much that you want to continue to make films.

I think less is more when it comes to kissing in the movies.
