Some Filmmakers, You Know, Have Their Style

In The Land Of Ideas, You Are Always Renting.

I Think '60s Are Appealing To Creative People, Because It Seemed To Be A Time Of Endless Possibilities, When The Boundaries Of What Could Be Considered Popular Culture Were Being Expanded Almost By The Week. It Doesn't Feel Like That Anymore. At Times, I Wish It Were So. Radio Is A Perfect Example; Good God, I Mean, Back Then The Most Interesting Songs Were Also Hits, And That's Just Not True Anymore. It Hasn't Been True In A Long Time.

Everything Had Been Done Long Before I Started Making Movies. I Mean, There's Nothing That Godard Hasn't Already Done. You Can't Do A Single Thing That Godard Hasn't Already Thought Of. And So You Struggle To Do Something That Is Not Predictable.

I Don't Consider Myself To Be Particularly Gifted In The Way That Other Filmmakers Are Gifted.

I'm A Big Believer That If There's Something You Really Want To Do, Don't Walk Away Because Of The Deal.
