I find it kind of weird that directors want to put themselves in their films.

I don't think estates are grim places.

I don't want to think too much about me.

I'm never going back to the past. It is like when I am driving - I never like to do those routes that take you backwards and make you go the long way. I always like to do the shortcuts and go forward.

I don't read reviews.

Every time I start a film I feel like I'm starting the first time, ever.

I can't remember why or how I started writing, but I think it was always a way of making sense of the world.
