I've never liked the moment of seeing something beautiful - a sunset, a moose, an elephant - and then raising a camera and trying to capture it for some future moment. That's always struck me as strange.

Bears are extremely human, even down to their footprints. But I am also a fly fisherman, so I have fished beside brown bears in Alaska and was once charged by a black bear. I love bears.

I actually believe in simplicity as a way of life. My wife and I are considering moving into a yurt!

As someone who has moved around a fair amount, I wondered what it would be like to stay rooted to one place, one community.

I spend a lot of time dancing in gay bars and want my gay friends to be able to get married, but I don't know if I ever want to get married and have kids. And I think that's a common struggle.

If marriage can be redefined so that it no longer means a man and a woman but two men or two women, why stop there? Why not allow three men or a woman and two men to constitute a marriage?

We know - relationships in this sport, it's very hard to have a really great relationship.

Most of the romance in my films has been inspired by my father.
