For me, the cinema is not a slice of life, but a piece of cake.

When we think we have been hurt by someone in the past, we build up defenses to protect ourselves from being hurt in the future. So the fearful past causes a fearful future and the past and future become one.

I enjoy playing the audience like a piano.

Television is like the invention of indoor plumbing. It didn't change people's habits. It just kept them inside the house.

People don't always express their inner thoughts to one another; a conversation may be quite trivial, but often the eyes will reveal what a person really thinks or feels.

One must never set up a murder. They must happen unexpectedly, as in life.

The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.
