You Are Not An Active Creator Of The Film.

Making A Film Is A Way For Me To Understand What It's Like To Be A Murderer, To Confess, To Be A Beaten Wife, To Be A Minority, To Be A Victor, To Get The Girl, To Lose The Girl. I Can Do All Of That Through The Practice Of An Art Form.

My Films Ought To Be Judged On Whether They're Entertaining Or Good As Films, But Not On The Political View Necessarily. I'm Trying To Be Morally Responsible And No More. I Don't Have An Agenda I'm Trying To Push.

Relationship Films Are Political. If A Woman Is Sitting In A Waiting Room In An Office And A Man Walks In And Sits Down, It's A Political Situation. If He Decides To Smoke, Does He Ask Her Or Does He Just Light Up? If He Lights Up, What Does She Do? It's Politics.

Every Single Art Form Is Involved In Film, In A Way.
