The individual will to survive is often seen as just that, an individual thing. In fact, it's sort of a gene we all carry and like a network of computers it all contributes in some way to when it's individually needed.

I don't want to make pompous, serious films; I like films that have a kind of vivacity about them.

Always changing genres, making very different films is a good idea. It's a way of making yourself feel vulnerable again, getting back to that innocence. As is working within a circumspect budget.

Film industry is a pretty brutal business. If you fall too far behind, all of the perfectionism in the world won't save you.
