Before Each New Setup, I Chase Everyone

My Films Have Always Had An Element Of Immediate Autobiography, In That I Shoot Any Particular Scene According To The Mood I'm In That Day, According To The Little Daily Experiences I've Had And Am Having - But I Don't Tell What Has Happened To Me. I Would Like To Do Something More Strictly Autobiographical, But Perhaps I Never Will, Because It Isn't Interesting Enough.

The Script Is A Starting Point, Not A Fixed Highway. I Must Look Through The Camera To See If What I've Written On The Page Is Right Or Not. In The Script, You Describe Imagined Scenes, But It's All Suspended In Mid-air. Often, An Actor Viewed Against A Wall Or A Landscape, Or Seen Through A Window, Is Much More Eloquent Than The Lines You've Given Him. So Then You Take Out The Lines. This Happens Often To Me And I End Up Saying What I Want With A Movement Or A Gesture.

I Always Mistrust Everything I See, Which An Image Shows Me, Because I Imagine What Is Beyond It. And What Is Beyond An Image Cannot Be Known.

I Think People Talk Too Much; That's The Truth Of The Matter. I Do. I Don't Believe In Words. People Use Too Many Words And Usually Wrongly. I Am Sure That In The Distant Future People Will Talk Much Less And In A More Essential Way. If People Talk A Lot Less, They Will Be Happier. Don't Ask Me Why.

The Moment Always Comes When, Having Collected One's Ideas, Certain Images, An Intuition Of A Certain Kind Of Development- Whether Psychological Or Material- One Must Pass On To The Actual Realization.
