If I couldn't read, I couldn't live.
I considered that the homes that people live in exactly describe their lives.
Rock Hudson was not an educated man, but that very beautiful body of his was putty in my hands.
A director in Hollywood in my time couldn't do what he wanted to do.
These happy endings all express the weak and sly promise that the world is not rotten and out of joint but meaningful and ultimately in excellent condition.
If I can say one thing for my pictures, it is a certain craftsmanship. A thought which has gone into every angle. There is nothing there without an optical reason.
