I'm a pluralist. I've always argued that as many different films as possible should be made.

The films that I do tend to polarise people's views.

Period recreation is very difficult unless you make a black and white movie.

Making a film is so hard that if you don't have your main actors going along with the ride with the rest of the crew it can make your life very difficult.

It doesn't matter what the technology is - no one will watch a Peter Greenaway film anyway.

If you'd been where I'd been... if you'd seen the things I'd seen!... you... you'd be me... Or someone following me around.

I was once described by one of my critics as an aesthetic fascist.
