Tony Gilroy (Anthony Joseph Gilroy) Quotes
What you need to know to direct a movie is of such great variety. I've worked with people who were maestros, who know everything.

I stopped drinking a few years ago, and drinking was a big help with me making music, because drinking gives you courage. But it also makes you reckless, and that's the trouble.
