I like to have the screen full of color, twenty colors on the screen at once, fifty colors. There are no dominants despite what people have said.

Laying tracks gives you freedom without being too obvious.

I remember an article, I can't recall who by, it was after the fall of the Berlin Wall, which said that now the Wall was down, there could be no more class war. Only someone with money could ever say such a thing.

There's one thing which I hate about color films... people who use up a lot of their despairing producer's money by working in the laboratory to bring out the dominant hues, or to make color films where there isn't any color.

You make a film to distract people, to interest them, perhaps to make them think, perhaps to help them be a little less naive, a little better than they were.

There is no new wave, only the sea.

I like making black and white films in natural surroundings, but I much prefer shooting a color film inside a studio where the colors are easier to control.
