P.T. Anderson: Today's movie villains often remind us of James Cagney and Humphrey Bogart and that's as cool as it gets. There's something comforting if they're hip and cool. They're not entirely real or not entirely threatening, so it might be a little easier to swallow if they remind us of traditional movie villains.
P.T. Anderson: My dad was one of the first guys on the block to have a VCR. So along with all the videotapes that I would rummage through, I would find porno movies. Not that it twisted me into some maniac or anything. I was watching porno from age 10 to 17. I had an interest in it.
P.T. Anderson: (about film making) It's a miracle anytime any one of them gets made, you know? It's a miracle every time, I feel like. It's a miracle every time a scene kind of gets done and through the birth canal and done. It's never any less of a miracle or any less difficult.
His favourite all-time film is Network (1976).
He is a big fan of Adam Sandler and his movies.
