I'm Asked Unendingly To Become Involved In

Think Of My Movies As Heightening Our Awareness, Not Confusing The Difference Between Truth And Fiction, But Heightening Our Awareness Of How Confused We Can Become About What Is Real.

Like All Great Documentaries, The Act Of Killing Demands Another Way Of Looking At Reality. It Starts As A Dreamscape, An Attempt To Allow The Perpetrators To Reenact What They Did, And Then Something Truly Amazing Happens. The Dream Dissolves Into Nightmare And Then Into Bitter Reality. An Amazing And Impressive Film.

A Lot Of The Distinctions That We Make Between Drama And Documentary Are Spurious. We're Deeply Confused About These Issues. About The Difference Between The Two, About Where Documentary Ends And Drama Begins.

Truth Exists Independent Of Style. It Involves All Kinds Of Issues. Properly Considered, It's A Quest, A Pursuit. To Say That Vérité Is More Truthful Than Something That Is Narrated Is Just Misplaced. Completely Wrong. And The Fact That People Still Talk About It As Though They're Really Talking About Something... It Puzzles Me Greatly. A Moment Of Reflection About It Tells You That It Makes No Sense!

I Like To Point Out That People Very Often Confuse The Idea That Truth Is Subjective With The Fact That Truth Is Perishable.
