“It is strange how the romances of the teenage years retain a poignancy all through life - how a girl who turns you down when you're 16 retains an aura in your memory even long after you, and she, have ceased to be who you were then. I attended my high school reunion a couple of weeks ago and discovered, in the souvenir booklet assembled by the reunion committee, that one of the girls in my class had a crush on me all those years ago. I would have given a great deal to have had that information at the time.” YearsLongSchoolRomanceTurnsGirlGivenMemoriesDealsClassWeekInformationStrangeCoupleHigh SchoolYears AgoCrushCommitteesTeenageOur MemoriesReunionAurasTeenage YearsSouvenirsPoignancyHigh School ReunionSchool Reunion Book:Roger Ebert's Video Companion Source: Roger Ebert's Video Companion

“I've done a couple of movies for scale, and it's the only way to get a lot of these independent movies made.

“Coming up with lectures is a huge amount of work. I was willing to do one lecture for Gresham because I was honored to have been invited, but to create lectures for a class would probably require that I shut down everything else and concentrate on lectures for a couple of years. Then there would be many, many other skills that I'd have to learn, such as how to sit through a faculty meeting, how to deal with students, etc. It is really not in the cards for me. It's not who I am or what I do.
