“12 Angry Men directed by one of my mentors Sidney Lumet. It's incredible, the editing, the performances, wo, To Die For.”

“Boom, Cooley High. It's like a little bit of like my old school kind of flavor. Chicago 1964. It wasn't shot in 1964 just so you know, don't be confused, but catches that era. Cooley High.”

“Moving on, Dr. Strangelove. Stanley Kubrick. Okay, the first time I heard about Stanley Kubrick, I want to tell you people, was a movie called Spartans. Can you believe that Stanley Kubrick came in four weeks before for shooting that movie and he shot that movie and he didn't want any credit for it and it was one of the most amazing movies.

“Punch-Drunk Love. Paul Thomas Anderson, thank you brother for putting me in some of the most genuine, beautiful movies that you have done. The thing about Punch-Drunk Love, it was the first time that I met Adam Sandler. After five minutes you forget that it's Adam Sandler because you get into this guy Barry and his like six Sisters and you just feel for him. We became brothers. What a great movie, what great performances. Philip Seymour Hoffman, thank you brother.”

“My favorite all-time film, On the Waterfront. The first time I saw this movie, oh my God, I'm almost going to cry. I was a kid and I watched the Performance that Marlon Brando gave.

You got to run a IV and just hook this movie, this is unreal. On the Waterfront, people, thank you guys for having me.”
