People Who Are Making Films

Art Films Aren't Necessarily Photography. It's Feeling. If We Can Capture A Feeling Of A People, Of A Way Of Life, Then We Made A Good Picture.

You Can Defeat Fear Through Humor, Through Pain, Through Honesty, Bravery, Intuition, And Through Love In The Truest Sense.

Films Today Show Only A Dream World And Have Lost Touch With The Way People Really Are... In This Country, People Die At 21. They Die Emotionally At 21, Maybe Younger... My Responsibility As An Artist Is To Help People Get Past 21... The Films Are A Roadmap Through Emotional And Intellectual Terrain That Provides A Solution On How To Save Pain.

I Have The Confidence That I Can Take Anybody And Have Them Give A Good Performance, Because I Don't Think There's Anything To Acting Except Expressing, Being Able To Converse. So If I Can Just Convince Somebody Not To Clean Themselves Up, And Not To Be Someone That They're Not, And Just Be What They Are In Given Circumstances, That's All That Acting Is To Me, And I Don't Think It's Very Difficult.

The Greatest Location In The World Is The Human Face.
