It's always a problem when you're working with people you don't really know. Most filmmaking is about shaking hands and just starting. You know, these month - or two-month-long endeavors that millions of dollars are based on, and the people doing them don't even know each other, or know each other under pressure, or know each other when things are really... Which filmmaking is completely done under in many circumstances. You're under constant crisis, making a movie.
Abel FerraraMy existence is about making movies, so I've just got to rock and roll with the punches. You want to make movies on telephones, I'm there.
Abel FerraraI'm in a house where if the washing machine shuts off, it sings a song. If iPad gets a message, it sings a song. I'm living in a real postmodern time - every single thing sings to you to tell you it's started, it's stopped, you've got a message, you didn't get a message.
Abel FerraraI direct, and I make movies I can't finance. I can't raise money. I can't sell anything. I make things.
