I like making films because I like to go into another world. I like to get lost into another world.

I think part of the reason ideas haven't come in is that the world of cinema is changing so drastically, and in a weird way, feature films I think have become cheap. Everything is kind of throwaway. It's experienced and then forgotten.

New mysteries. New day. Fresh doughnuts.

As a teenager, I was really trying to have fun 24 hours a day. I didn't start thinking until I was 20 or 21. I was doing regular goof-ball stuff.

Sometimes I get an idea for cinema. And when you get an idea that you fall in love with, this is a glorious day.

It’s better not to know so much about what things mean or how they might be interpreted or you’ll be too afraid to let things keep happening.

Stories hold conflict and contrast, highs and lows, life and death, and the human struggle and all kinds of things.
