It is sad when people can't connect, and the sense of desperation that you feel when there is nothing to look forward to.

The idea for any film is always going to be surprising or unusual.

When I go to the movies, I like to see something different.

Steve Martin is a legendary actor and a wonderful person to work with. He's incredibly well prepared, and funny off the set.

At any age, we struggle with intimacy. When you're a kid, you think, 'I won't have that problem. I'll have sex whenever I want when I'm a grown-up!' And then, somehow, it doesn't quite turn out that way, and it's so surprising to people that connection remains so challenging even when you're married.

I never went to work on a movie set until I was a producer and director.

Nobody in this world thinks they're having enough sex. Watch any night on television, or any comedian in a nightclub, and every other joke is about people who aren't getting enough.

I actually have great respect for the professionals on both sides, journalism designers in the fashion industry, and I wanted to make a movie that celebrated what they did as much as poke fun at the challenges of their lives.

If you intellectualize the idea of marriage, it can be quite daunting, no matter how much in love you are.

My biggest challenge in making 'The Devil Wears Prada' was simply to maintain a tone of sophistication and reality. It's about the fashion world, or it's set in the fashion world, and that's a world that's easy to mock. It's easy to satirise people trying to lose weight and choosing between fancy clothes.
