Married people from my generation are like an endangered species!
I like cinema. I am very fond of it. But from time to time I feel like having some time on my own.
Working with the same people is so much quicker and frees up your energy for other things.
I am not a fan of westerns particularly.
Yes, I am very prolific.
I'm not one to dwell on rehearsal or preparation.
I like films to be complete in their written form.
When I was young, my idea was to become a filmmaker.
I would rather my films be well-known than I be well-known.
I can zero in on subtle things because I'm holding the camera.
You may think it's very presumptuous, but I really hope that my movies are going to turn people into better people.
You can work, shop, do everything from home, and I find this unsettling.
I never storyboard. I hate it. I don't understand why so many directors want to make comic strips of their films.
Working with a bunch of actors is like trying to tune each violin.
What I expect of a movie reviewer is that he should love cinema as much as I do.
My movies are, more or less, very short. I'm terrified of boring an audience.
I like films that are well-written and concise and with not a lot of room for improvisation.
If a film is very clever and well-written, that's what gives you freedom as a director.
But I won't work with the exact same crew film after film because I feel the work would get a little complacent.
No, but it's not because I'm getting older that I'm trying to accelerate. But something very curious is happening: The older I get, the more ideas I'm getting.
