Ich bin in Indianapolis, Indiana, aufgewachsen, damals eine konservative Provinzstadt. Anglophilie war die erste Fremdsprache, der ich ausgesetzt wurde. Oder vielleicht war es eine Möglichkeit, die ortsansässigen Weißen zu übertreffen. Oder vielleicht war es eine frühe Manifestation von Homohood.

People use location as a language in films, and Quentin uses action as a language in his films. There's really not a lot of violence. It's more of an emotional beat than it is a physical beat.

I'm a fan of making films. Whether I'm on stage or in front of a camera, one of my first loves is performing for the people. I'd like to do more acting.

Busta Rhymes

I have a one-question language test that people who have lived abroad do better on than those who studied in a classroom. Try my test yourself: In a foreign language you've studied, how do you say 'doorknob'?
