I just don't want to copy the current trends or do movies for teenagers. I want people to get more out of movies.

To me cinema can be a much more friendly world if there's a lot of things to choose from.

Scott's Eastwood movie Snowden sounds fascinating. I want to see it because it's about deserting your country ... for whatever reasons you have. Edward Snowden became famous for the wrong reasons, as Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger became famous for doing something spectacular.

Opinions are like a**holes, everybody has one.

I always like to try different things, different genres; stories that have a dramatic element and can generate conflict which I find appealing; where the characters have to overcome obstacles. That kind of thing is challenging.

We don't even know who's in the Academy.

The thing that haunts a man the most is what he isn't ordered to do.
