Nicholas Jarecki

I think that ultimately any effective drama or tragedy tries to put you as much as it can into the protagonist's shoes.

I've written plenty of scripts that sucked.

Some people are in positions of power, and when incentives go haywire, we are all human and it's easy to make mistakes. I am not saying everybody is Bernie Madoff.

In my opinion, the Republican Party is the last on the list to care about the needs of old people and children and poor people.

My style is Edie Sedgwick meets Grace Jones, or Audrey Hepburn meets Salt 'n' Pepa. Strong and feisty but still classic.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.
