For me, suspense doesn't have any value if it's not balanced by humor.

In feature films the director is God; in documentary films God is the director.

I'm a writer and, therefore, automatically a suspicious character.

I can't read fiction without visualizing every scene. The result is it becomes a series of pictures rather than a book.

I'm sure anyone who likes a good crime, provided it is not the victim.

Even my failures make money and become classics a year after I make them.

I am a typed director. If I made Cinderella, the audience would immediately be looking for a body in the coach.
