I think cynicism lasts. Sentimentality ages, dates quickly.
I still have energy and some degree of youth, which is what a filmmaker needs.
Joe E. Lewis said, 'Money doesn't buy happiness but it calms the nerves.' And that is how I feel about a film being well-received.
In the moment of making films, I want to share my observations of life, not of other films.
I never wanted money worries to slow me down or make me take a job I didn't want.
If you have your movies so that everyone understands everything, I think that's probably not a very good movie.
