And luckily, I've had plenty of chances to recalibrate and adjust, and good fortune's come my way.”

“I've had frustrated storytelling juices that have been lying dormant for a long time, and I guess the documentary was a way of me telling a story that I felt most qualified to tell. And I loved it, and I'd love to do something else someday, probably more narrative-based. But I'm in no rush.”
