Every Film Is A Political Act; It's

It's Only At This Age That I Can Say The Word 'art' Without Flinching.

I Look For The Humanity In People, However Big The Politics Or Oppressive The Situation May Be, Whether It's Subsumed Within A Human Being Or Between Two Human Beings. I Want To Help Us Hold A Mirror To Ourselves.

They Say Now In America That Final Cut Doesn't Mean Anything. As Harvey Weinstein Said To Some Film-maker, 'you Can Have Final Cut. I'll Open Your Film In Arkansas.'

Making Films Is About Having Absolute And Foolish Confidence; The Challenge For All Of Us Is To Have The Heart Of A Poet And The Skin Of An Elephant.

Every Frame And Every Scene Has To Have An Intention.
