Man is a military animal, glories in gunpowder, and loves parade.

The sole equality on earth is death.

Poets are all who love, who feel great truths, And tell them; and the truth of truths is love.

Analyze This' is a good movie because Robert De Niro and Billy Crystal are really good. But without the material to put on the play, of course, they couldn't be good. For me, it starts with the writing. I always think that the writer is doing the vast majority of the director's work, in a sense.

My identity is linked to my grandmother, who's pure Filipino, as pure as you can probably get. And that shaped my imagination. So that's how I identify.
