Dramatically, I like darkness, I like conflict - but I don't see the world as defined by them.

Once Ive finished a film I just want to get on and make another one.

I deliberately never read about films before I see them.

I don't feel very revengeful in life at all.

I hear filmmakers saying, 'I wanted to make to make a film about this issue, or this theme,' but I never start like that.

I work best when there is adversity: I seem to get calmer the more the fur is flying.

I don't think estates are grim places.
