Film Is Lies At Twenty-four

People Like Nonfiction Presented To Them In A Certain Way, So That They Don't Have To Think About Whether It's True Or Not. They Like It To Have That Imprimatur Of Respectability, Of Genuineness.

I Like To Think That Every Movie Emerges From The Conversations.

It's A Kind Of Honour When I See How Many People Are Imitating The Style Of How I Make Films.

People Can Burn Archives; People Can Destroy Evidence, But To Say That History Is Perishable, That Historical Evidence Is Perishable, Is Different Than Saying That History Is Subjective.

One Of The Strengths Of My Interviews Is That I Really, Honest To God, Have No Idea What People Are Going To Say.
