I’ve stopped going to see art films because every critic gives them four stars and say things like ‘masterpiece,’ ‘spellbinding’ and ‘mesmerizing.’ I mean, they’re doing that with my film, but I don’t want to use those blurbs. Critical reviews aren’t worth too much anymore because just about every film can get one or two of them Picture Quote #1

I think the point of art is to be controversial in a lot of ways. It’s to cause conversations, and it’s to get people excited about and talking about the things that the films are about Picture Quote #1

We’re told that independent film lovers... folks that are used to watching art house films, won’t come out and see a film with black people in it - I’ve been told that in rooms, big rooms, studio rooms, and I know that’s not true Picture Quote #1

People make films for different reasons. For money. Or, they make them because something in them demands artistic expression. I do it because I enjoy the work Picture Quote #1

The gritty indie films are a lot rarer than the films that aspire to fill multiplexes Picture Quote #1

We all desire things that we believe we cannot have, and so my films reflect that again and again. The mystery must be solved, the goal attained Picture Quote #1

In films, I didn’t crave the type of attention I had sort of stumbled into in my music career. And I do not audition well. I’m really not good at it. Early on, I did movies like ‘Alpha Dog’ and ‘Black Snake Moan’ because the directors didn’t ask me to audition Picture Quote #1

I offer originality: you don’t know what my films are like until you go to them. I think that’s the reason I’ve been getting all this attention Picture Quote #1

Audiences like me doing action and comedy. I am a jovial person and have been so from childhood. I like to laugh my way through my work, and that attitude reflects in my roles. Even women hate me doing rona-dhona roles. So I don’t do emotional films Picture Quote #1
