Instead, I went to a community college and studied the theory and history of film with the idea that I wanted to write and direct.
3. A lot of my friends are gangsters. Not like gangsters — well, yeah, all sorts of levels of criminality — but not the types that are preying on innocent people. I have no interest in the type of criminality that has no respect for collateral damage.
