I Want To Be Able To Control

Never Say No. It Always Depends On What's Possible. I Don't Care So Much Where It Is; It's What I Want To Do That Matters.

It's A Fact That People Who Are In A Weakened Position, Whether Physically Or Mentally, Have This Perception Of The Outer World As Threatening. Everything That Is Unexpected Or Unknown Is Seen As A Potential Danger.

Film Is The Manipulative Medium Par Excellence. When You Think Back On The History Of Film And The 20th Century, You See The Propaganda That's Been Made. So There Are Moral Demands On The Director To Treat The Spectators As Seriously As He Or She Takes Himself And Not To See Them Merely As Victims That Can Be Manipulated To Whatever Ends They Have.

I Give The Spectator The Possibility Of Participating. The Audience Completes The Film By Thinking About It; Those Who Watch Must Not Be Just Consumers Ingesting Spoon-fed Images.

I'm Not Really A Happy Person. It's A Question Of Temperament. I Have A Tendency Toward Melancholy. You Can Feel Quite Happily Melancholic.
