I Take No Notice Of The Trends.

I Really Think People Are Greatly Stimulated And Enriched By Experiencing In Film Just As We Can From Novels And Other Art, Experiencing Things That Resonate With What Our Lives Are About. I Think People Really Want To Know... Want To Share, Want To Have The Stimulus To Think And Care About The Way They Live Their Lives, The Way They Relate To Other People, Their Aspirations, Their Hopes, Et Cetera.

One Of The Reasons The Whole Hollywood Way Of Making Films Wouldn't Work For Me Is Because The Way I Operate Would Be Anathema To Anyone Who Wants To Hold A Job Down In Beverly Hills.

I Think It’s Important That Nobody Forgets That Although Hollywood Commercially Dominates The World Cinema, In Fact What Comes Out Of The Filmmaking Here Is Only A Tiny Slice Out Of The Massive Amount Of Operation That Goes On Around The World.

I Can't Really See How Anybody Could Be Particularly Optimistic About The Future In General Because We Are Destroying The Planet.

I Try And Create For The Audience Something That Relates To Real-life Experience.
