Mike Mills Quotes
«[Keanu was just one of the guys, according to Mills, staying in a crappy condo in suburban Oregon like everyone else during the shoot.] He never said in any way, 'I'm special' or 'I'm different,' ... Working with Keanu is a lot like working with one of my electricians or a grip. It's just someone who wants to come to work. The worst thing you can do is pay too much attention to him.»
Author: Mike Mills
«He came through the door and he was really nervous, which again made me excited because, OK, this isn't someone who is professional and wearing a mask and being slick and all that. His first take was horrible, and I was totally crestfallen. I told him to stop acting, and he nailed it. It was a sort of 'meant to be' type of thing.»

«You have this 18-year old who is trying to figure out his life. But you also have these 40-year-olds who are trying to figure out their lives, and this whole myth of, 'Once I have a family, a house, a husband, this hole I felt will be filled up and I'll be OK,' ... At 40 they're, 'Wait a minute, it's not all OK, I still have all those problems. What do I do now?' And I'm really happy to have both of those problems and both of those ages in the same story.»
Author: Mike Mills
«I felt someone was revealing hard truths about themselves, revealing uneasy things about themselves, which I always find really generous, ... It makes my life easier when people say, 'Hey! I'm not perfect,' or, 'Hey! I've got flaws.' And he did it with such a sense of humor and such compassion for all those flaws, he was making us all a cushion to trip over and fall on, you know?»

«There's nothing like a movie. It's the one art form that can really make me cry, and the thing is, we're all filmmakers. We're all creating movies in our heads all the time on our internal projection screens. To have the experience of playing out that movie, and making it real, it was very moving... in fact, I was crying my eyes out last night because I was thinking of how special the whole thing was,»

«It's not perfect. I have problems with it. But as a learning experience, it was a great practice exercise.»
