I like it when somebody tells me a story, and I actually really feel that that's becoming like a lost art in American cinema.

I look at 'Death Proof' and realize I had too much time.

It's very important that every movie I do makes money because I want the people that had the faith in me to get their money back.

Novelists have always had complete freedom to pretty much tell their story any way they saw fit. And that's what I'm trying to do.

I loved history because to me, history was like watching a movie.
