Everybody's got creativity. Dive within to the ocean of infinite creativity.

The cinema is really built for the big screen and big sound, so that a person can go into another world and have an experience.

Humor is very interesting to me. My films are not comedies, but there's comedy in them from time to time, absurdities, just like in real life.

To me, a story can be both concrete and abstract, or a concrete story can hold abstractions. And abstractions are things that really can't be said so well with words.

I didn't know anything about film when I first started - I was a painter - but I [always] felt that sound was just as important as the picture. The sound, picture, and ideas have to marry. If an idea carries with it a mood, sound is critical to making that mood.

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

I discovered that if one looks a little closer at this beautiful world, there are always red ants underneath.
