'25th Hour,' Like A Lot Of My Films, Takes Place In New York City. I've Been Very Fortunate To Make Films In The City That I Live. I Mean, It's Great Going Home At Night Instead Of Being On Location.

I'm Just Trying To Tell A Good Story And Make Thought-provoking, Entertaining Films. I Just Try And Draw Upon The Great Culture We Have As A People, From Music, Novels, The Streets.

I May Have Been Born Yesterday, But I Stayed Up All Night.

I'll Be Vilified If I Shoot A Film In Toronto For New York. And Rightfully So!

Right Now A Lot Of People Are Still Choosing To Go To Toronto Instead Of Shooting In New York City, Something I Haven't Done And Something I Hope I'll Never Have To Do.
