I am often asked at what point in my love affair with films I began to want to be a director or a critic. Truthfully, I don't know. All I know is that I wanted to get closer and closer to films.

Three films a day, three books a week and records of great music would be enough to make me happy to the day I die.

The most beautiful thing I have ever seen in a movie theatre is to go down to the front and turn around, and look at all the uplifted faces, the light from the screen reflected upon them.

Some day I'll make a film that critics will like. When I have money to waste.

Hitchcock loves to be misunderstood, because he has based his whole life around misunderstandings.

In love, women are professionals, men are amateurs.

When I begin a film, I want to make a great film. Halfway through, I just hope to finish the film.
