“ I love actors, and I'm very protective of them. I trust them. It's a mutual trust. ”
My mission is to let black kids know that their dreams can happen.
~ Lee Daniels
Here's the thing: I think the media underestimates the intelligence of the moviegoer. We need to be fulfilled. People want to sit down and think, and I try to make people think.
I'm always more comfortable and in a good place when I'm with friends because I know they trust me. I'm able to get great performances from people who trust me.
I'm in a great place because I trust people behind the camera as I go off, and I still go back to my day job and do film.
