"I felt like a fraud... but I had nothing to do with it. It was him!"
"There are many things in the movie which are simply not true"
"I was hurt by the movie. It was like a knife in my heart"
"I felt like somebody hit me in the face with an ice cube tray..."
"I would've killed him when I saw the film in his apartment"
"We're like vultures"
"If you don't know the truth It's better to stay silent"

I don't believe those stories...
Everyone wants to be on film...
It can make you really famous... fabulous... a star director... so you can live in Beverly Hills.
I really know what it feels like being hounded by a camera...
I felt like somebody hit me in the face with an ice cube tray... my life was over...
I hammered the nails on the coffin
Half of them would love to have their parents dead.
I tried to capture the truth...
I think he is the one!
It will be sold out...
It was one of those Sundance things... We started our meeting on a bus
It's commercial... very MTVish, very saleable... I love it.
Getting ready for another shoot day
It's very aggressive thing, very American.... that's why we've got Coca-Cola everywhere...
To have all control you need to give up control

I'd like to get a shot of Robert Redford so we can say that our film is starring him.
