3D is quite a lot more advanced in animated movies; for live-action movies we're just taking baby steps, we're just in the beginning. So when I think of doing that I was very excited. It didn't go as far as I think it should, I'm still a novice, but I think it's fair to say it's a new cinematic medium, experience.

Emotions serve characters' purposes. That is their motivation.

I don't have incredible knowledge about films or of filmmaking history; I'm not that kind of person.

I wanted to shoot straight, mainstream, somehow off-beat. Not only realistic West, which is quite unfamiliar to the world's population - even to a lot of Americans.

I see a movie as a way of learning about the world, about myself, and learning about my relationship with people and art.

Economically, it’s more expensive to make movies. I hope digital movies change that.

Sensitivity and money are like parallel lines. They don't meet.
