There's a conscious decision to everything I do.

I just think that the collective experience of going to see a film is something you can't recreate.

I'd like to see (the films) go back to the books. I think (the films) need to be dirtier. I think that you should feel the man playing Bond could die at any moment. You don't feel that any more.

I know in my life there's stuff that will come back because I haven't dealt with it, and it's the same with everybody.

In all good westerns, the good guy is always a little bit questionable because he kind-of has to make moral judgments.

If money comes along I will take it. I just want good scripts that try to make you think. I've been offered lots of money in the past but I just know that I would abuse it and get drunk.

I'm not averse to earning someone; in fact I'd love to earn some money. But also my choices of movies don't tend to make money but I get to make interesting films. But it doesn't mean I don't want to earn shitloads of cash.
