A movie as specific as 'Heathers,' which took place in a specific time and specific place and in which many of the characters got killed off, I never thought it made sense to see a sequel.

I don't like sequels at all. If the movie's good the first time, why bother?

I can't tell you how hard it is to make a dark-humored movie in Hollywood.

In the past, my aspirations were as arty as they could get, and I'm really embarrassed by it.

I really like getting inside the heads of female characters. I think I can do that well, and I enjoy it.

I'm not a macho guy. I'm very soft-spoken on the set. But I'm not really intimidated by the process of making movies.

I love 'Heathers,' and I loved doing that movie. I'm very proud of it, so if it gets brought up, I'm happy.

I just can't operate with any direct awareness of the pressures I might be under.

Not just do they look like they could be sisters, but they feel like they could be sisters. We've encouraged them to spend time together. Most of the time, I think they search on eBay and do shopping and discuss things that have no meaning to me whatsoever.

I've done movies that have mostly feminine characters and elements, and I think that both 'Heathers' and 'Truth About Cats and Dogs' are, in their own weird ways - they're different ends of the girl movie spectrum, but they're very much centered around the female characters, and I like those movies, and I like working with good actresses.
