Quotes

Nowadays I often find documentaries scarier than films. Those are true,stories and most of the time truth is stranger than fiction. Take for,example documentaries like,Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room (2005) or,Deliver Us from Evil (2006) . That people are capable of doing,those things, it warps my mind. - On his favorite scary movie,[At the Cannes Film Festival, 2011] I love being here again. The madness,of it. I mean, i walked my first ever red carpet right here at Cannes.
