I Loved Movies And Went To See

I Believe The Important Part Of Directing Really Is Finding The Right People For The Right Roles. Sometimes You Go For What's Expected, And Sometimes You Go Against Type Because You Think That'll Really Bring Something Different To The Movie.

I Loved Cutting Together Simple Commercials About Margarine Or Soft Drinks - All Kinds Of Silly Products - But I Tried To Make The Commercials Different.

There Were A Lot Of People Dreaming About Making Films, And They Would Finance Maybe 6 Films A Year. Because They Were Funded By The Government, The Films Sort-of Had To Deal With Serious Social Issues - And, As A Result, Nobody Went To See Those Films.

You Want To Do Something That Shows Some Type Individuality And Talent And Imagination - At The Same Time, You Want To Be Truthful To The Predecessors, Because Obviously The Audience Liked Something About Them And You Have To Replicate That Experience To A Certain Extent.

I Was Making Films When I Was About 12 Years Old - Super-8 Films.
