Life Is About Luck And It's About

I Am Very Happy To Be Part Of European And World Cinema As A British Filmmaker.

Resolve Was Never Stronger Than In The Morning, After The Night, When It Was Never Weaker

I Think The Camera Has Got To Be Motivated. You Can't Have Things Arrived At Gratuitously. Everything Has To Have An Organic Function, But The More Comfortable I've Become And The More Imaginative And Sophisticated And The More Exploratory I've Become At The Medium, The More I've Subtly Deviated Away From That In Various Ways.

If A Film Or Any Piece Of Work Doesn't Entertain, It Fails - And That Is Using The Word Entertain Literally, Meaning It Holds You There And You Become Absorbed By It So That You Don't Walk Away And Get Bored And So On.

I Know, That Trends And All Of Those Things And Formulae That Calculate What Audiences Want To See And What Audiences Don't Want To See And Various Other Demographic Demarcations Are The Eccentric And Ludicrous Prerogative Of Hollywood Studios. But Out There In The Real World - By Which I Mean The Rest Of The World Where We Make Truthful Organic Films, Independent Films Unimpeded By Interference - It's Not About All Those Sort Of Calculating What Is Commercial. It's About Wanting To Say Things And Saying Them In A Way That Will Get Through To People.
