I used a video camera, and shot on film cameras at school and stuff, but I had a lot more training as a writer. I kind of live like a writer. I get up and I write. I've done that my whole life.

Image
I think I've always been drawn to the notion of talk as cinematic.
Noah Baumbach
Image
I made two movies very young, and then I had trouble getting a movie made, and so - which was both, I think, a plus and a minus. It was a minus because it made me unhappy.

It's nice being friends over a period of time with people whose music you like so much, or other filmmakers, seeing people change, go through trials
