Whether A Movie Part Comes To Me

The Actors Are Telling The Truth On Some Level, And People Have To Believe It. At Cannes, A Lot Of People Said, "oh, Shocking," But This Italian Girl Said To Me, "my God, I Just Said That To My Boyfriend The Other Night." That's What Lula From Wild At Hearts Talks About. That's Life - To Turn Each Other On, To Feel Good, To Feel In Love.

You're Not Directing An Actor Toward A Thing They Can't Achieve. Because Direction Is Elusive. When Directors Hold Respect For The Various Craftsmen And -women Who Are Telling The Story, It's The Greatest Result. I Think People Do Their Bravest Work When Given An Elusive Canvas.

Whether A Movie Part Comes To Me Or I Seek It Out, There's Always This Journey To Darkness Through Light, Or Vice Versa; That Element Has Been In Almost Everything I've Done.

It Would Be Great To Make A Movie That Had The Style Of A Great '30s Film Or A Movie Of David's Lynch Or Some Other Director I Love That Could Also Make Money, Because That Would Say To The Corporation, "yes, You Can Make Money And Still Do Art." But It's Tricky.

When Man Decides He Can Control Nature, He's In Deep Trouble
