I Think Always My Interest In Making

When I Shoot Actors, I Have That Dilemma. I Want The Actor To Be Good, And Sometimes I Have To Push Them To A Place That Isn't Pleasant. I Always Think: 'is It Worth Doing For The Sake Of The Movie?' But I Have To Remember The Bigger Picture.

In The '90s Movies Were So Serious, And So Stylistic And Slick That I Could Not Identify With Them.

I Hate Cynicism. I Wipe It From Me. I Don't Like Cynical People. I Don't Like Cynical Movies. Cynicism Is Very Easy. You Don't Have To Justify It. You Don't Have To Fight For It.

I'm Not Judging The Films. People Make These Connections Through A Film, Or Because They Know Them. But The Fact That They Erase Them And Have To Start From Scratch, I Think That's An Important Point. A Lot Of Kids, When They Have A Camera, Have Tended To Do Remakes Of Existing Films. You Have A Lot Of Kids That Make Star Wars. And I Think That's Creativity, But Not As Much Creativity As Starting From Scratch.

I Like To Use A Bit Of Chaos When I Shoot. I Think It May Be Something From The Way I Shot My First Film - I Was Very Scared, Of Course, And I Prepared Everything, I Wanted To Make Sure That The Characters Did The Right Thing At The Right Time On The Storyboard. But Then I Realised That In Life, There Is So Much More Than What You Can Predict Or Write In Advance, That When You Shoot The Story, It's Good To Leave Some Gaps Where You Lose Control. I Think This Combination Of Chaos And Organisation Gives A Kind Of Quality.
