“I always loved as a kid reading 'Spider-Man,' and the 'Fantastic Four' would show up... it was all about that larger universe.”

“I think with any movie, the more you know, it loses some of its power.”
“I came from a background of directing behind-the-scenes documentaries.”
“I forgive 'Face in the Crowd' its uneven tone because it's precisely what makes it feel unlike other Kazan movies.”
“What I loved about 'The 40 Year-Old Virgin,' the title is the easy sell, but when you see the movie, the comedy is more free-form and more relatable.”
