If It Can Be Written, Or Thought,

I Don't Like Doing Interviews. There Is Always The Problem Of Being Misquoted Or, What's Even Worse, Of Being Quoted Exactly.

If You Really Want To Communicate Something, Even If It’s Just An Emotion Or An Attitude, Let Alone An Idea, The Least Effective And Least Enjoyable Way Is Directly. It Only Goes In About An Inch. But If You Can Get People To The Point Where They Have To Think A Moment What It Is You’re Getting At, And Then Discover It, The Thrill Of Discovery Goes Right Through The Heart.

It's A Passion When You're Doing It For Other People And You're Doing It For The People Around You Making The Film And The People Who Are Going To See The Film, And The Giving. When You Start Thinking About You Doing It For Some Sort Of Self-gain, Then I Think It Becomes An Obsession. It Becomes A Negative Experience.

How Does Anybody Ever Think Of Anything?

A Film Needs More Than You Can Give It In A Lifetime.
