Making a film, setting it up and getting it cast and getting it together, is not an easy thing

I like things that make you grit your teeth. I like tucking my chin in and sort of leading into the storm. I like that feeling. I like it a lot.

I'm very often still very much alive for that other being and that other world long after the film is finished

I'm not keen on history being tampered with... to any extent.

I don't feel my son should pay the price for what I do.

If you have a certain wildness of spirit, a cabinet maker's workshop is not the place to express it.

I hate the domestic life.
