I think 99% of the whole thing is to have passion about the idea yourself. I think part of your job as a filmmaker is to tell someone that might not think it's going to work that, actually, it will work.

I think in most couples or partnerships, there's a constant struggle for power and dominance.

When I was a kid the highlight of my week would be doing a fossil hunt at the local quarry... that kind of thing.

So many films end up being filmed in London or in the same places over and over again.

Growing up, I didn't feel very cool having come from the Midlands.

Ironically, there isn't much comedy film in Britain, which is quite surprising seeing that we're quite good at it.

I think it's very easy to get discouraged early on.
