I Wouldn't Presume To Be God's Point

I Know That I Come From Mid-20th Century America, Urban, Specifically Downtown New York, Specifically An Italian-american Area, Roman Catholic - That's Who I Am. And A Part Of What I Know Is There's A Decency To People Who Tried To Make A Living In The Kind Of World That Was Around Us And Also The Skid Row Area Of The Bowery; It Impressed Me.

Movies Touch Our Hearts, And Awaken Our Vision, And Change The Way We See Things. They Take Us To Other Places. They Open Doors And Minds. Movies Are The Memories Of Our Lifetime. We Need To Keep Them Alive.

I Loved The Idea Of Seeing The World Through A Boy's Eyes.

[kubrick] Was Unique In The Sense That With Each New Film He Redefined The Medium And Its Possibilities. But He Was More Than Just A Technical Innovator. Like All Visionaries, He Spoke The Truth. And No Matter How Comfortable We Think We Are With The Truth, It Always Comes As A Profound Shock When We're Forced To Meet It Face-to-face.

I Can't Really Envision A Time When I'm Not Shooting Something.
