I've Been To North Africa Many Times.

The Only Way I Was Able To Defend Myself Was To Be Able To Take Punishment. Then I Got A Lot Of Respect. They Said, "oh, He's Okay, He Can Take It. Don't Hit Him." The Guys Were Pretty Big, And I Had Asthma.

All I Can Do Is Try To Do The Best Work I Can. I Need To Work, I Like To Work... Although I Complain About It, But I Do Like It - And I Just Need To Make The Best Film I Can.

I Go Through Periods, Usually When I'm Editing And Shooting, Of Seeing Only Old Films.

I Think When You're Young And Have That First Burst Of Energy And Make Five Or Six Pictures In A Row That Tell The Stories Of All The Things In Life You Want To Say... Well, Maybe Those Are The Films That Should Have Won Me The Oscar.
