I always found the film world unpleasant. It's all about the schedule, and never really flew for me.

Ten Days That Shook The World, by Eisenstein, I went to see it, and I was so impressed with this film, so impressed with what cinema could do.

A director is the ringmaster of a circus that's inventing itself.

Drinking wine is just a part of life, like eating food.

I liked to work in a shop down in the basement and invent things and build gadgets.

If the movie works, nobody notices the mistakes... If the movie doesn't work, the only thing people notice are mistakes.

I don't think there's any artist of any value who doesn't doubt what they're doing.
