"If you're one of those people who's a little on the shy side, but you want someone to know you're not a prude, a Betty Davis record can explain that for you. In "Anti Love Song" she's trying to deny her most primal urges for a man she knows she shouldn't love, and through it she's just moaning and groaning. There's a pain there behind her sexiness. It's like there's a claw coming out of her mouth."

"This might be the first movie that I saw. I remember watching it when I was five or six — I shouldn’t even have been watching it — and I saw it in a theater. I grew up in a small town and they had one of those small town theaters, and they put Westerns and whatnot onscreen. It’s one of those movies that made me think it would be very cool to work in movies. I don’t know if I understood the concept of being a director, but I understood the concept of someone making movies, and this movie did it for me. Other people say Star Wars or Indiana Jones. For me it was this one. That’s why I have an emotional reaction to it."
