I never meet anybody who actually likes the format, and it’s always a source of great concern to me when you’re charging a higher price for something that nobody seems to really say they have any great love for.

I think the films Insomnia and Memento share all sorts of thematic concerns, such as the relationship between motivation and action, and the difficulty of reconciling your view of the story with the supposed objective view of that story.

I think audiences get too comfortable and familiar in today's movies. They believe everything they're hearing and seeing. I like to shake that up.

I made 'Batman' the way I made every other film, and I've done it to my own satisfaction - because the film, truly, is exactly the way I wanted it to be.

If I could steal someone's dream myself, I'd have to go for one of Orson Welles.

I have to believe that when my eyes are closed, the world's still there. (Leonard Shelby, Memento)

I will miss the Batman. I like to think that he'll miss me, but he's never been particularly sentimental.
