Television has done much for psychiatry by spreading information about it, as well as contributing to the need for it.

The only way to get rid of my fears is to make films about them.

I am scared easily, here is a list of my adrenaline - production: 1: small children, 2: policemen, 3: high places, 4: that my next movie will not be as good as the last one.

A woman, I always say, should be like a good suspense movie: The more left to the imagination, the more excitement there is. This should be her aim - to create suspense, to let a man discover things about her without her having to tell him.

Reality is something that none of us can stand, at any time.

Making a film means, first of all, to tell a story. That story can be an improbable one, but it should never be banal. It must be dramatic and human. What is drama, after all, but life with the dull bits cut out?

I'm frightened of eggs, worse than frightened, they revolt me.
