What's called a difficult decision is a difficult decision because either way you go there are penalties.

I truly believe that all power corrupts. Such is probably the thinking behind every political film ever made in Hollywood.

I was able to capture on film things the actors didn't even know they were doing.

I was both very successful and very left; the living demonstration of how you could be on the left and still be in the gossip columns and be envied for the money you made.

I would rather do what I did than crawl in front of a ritualistic Left and lie the way those other comrades did betray my own soul.

The motion pictures I have made and the plays I have chosen to direct represent my convictions.

Criticism- a big bite out of someone's back.
