I met my boyfriend, a pro poker player, at a tournament. He tried to dissuade me because it's a seedy gritty world. Listen, I've played till 4 in the morning. I've played with a half million dollars on the table. ↗

Music is where I have the most creative freedom, but I love producing. To me, that's kind of where all the action is. You get a chance to have your hands in every aspect of a film. From picking a director, sometimes picking a writer, to the actors, the wardrobe, set design, editing, music, and marketing. ↗

So laying people off is not something I do lightly, it's not something I relish. ↗

Before there was any talk of a movie, people would sometimes ask me what actors I would imagine playing these characters. And the only thing I could ever say is: I have such a clear idea of these characters that they'd have to play themselves. ↗

I'm an old-fashioned guy... I want to be an old man with a beer belly sitting on a porch, looking at a lake or something. ↗

When you try to communicate too many ideas, sometimes you wind up communicating nothing. ↗
