Death Is What Makes Life

It Takes No Imagination To Live Within Your Means.

Without A Doubt, I Was Born To Want To Make Cinema, But The Kind Of Cinema I Want To Make Is Not Like Commercial Movies, Which I Enjoy Myself, But I Wanted To Be The Kind Of Filmmaker Who Wrote Original Work, Sort Of Like A Novelist Would Who Deals With Who We Are And Our Times Or Our Relationships.

When Newspapers Started To Publish The Box Office Scores Of Movies, I Was Horrified. Those Results Are Totally Fake Because They Never Include The Promotion Budget.

Cinema Without Risk Is Like Having No Sex And Expecting To Have A Baby.

I Gladly, I Voluntarily Gave Up The Kind Of Commercial Film Career I Had Going As Soon As I Had Enough Money To Finance My Own Films. I Didn't Make That Money Necessarily From The Film Business, But I Eventually Made A Lot Of Money And That's What I Do. Of Course, I Consider Myself Unbelievably Fortunate, And I'm Pretty Content With My Life.
