"Like in a David Lynch or Todd Solondz movie, there are feelings that something else is going on [underneath], but it's not pretentious or over the top with its message. We always have that instinct — if something's going one way, we can push it back the other way. There's a genuine grasping for something new or exciting or controversial, but it doesn't disrespect the need for entertainment."
