Boy, I'd hate to shoot on tape or disc or whatever the hell they're talking about. I love film.

A director shouldn't get in the way of the movie, the story should.

The human race is fundamentally insane. If you put two of us into a room together we're soon gonna start figuring out good reasons to kill one another.

Visual storytelling of one kind or another has been around since cavemen were drawing on the walls.

I just tell you what a pleasure it is to get back to the kind of filmmaking I used to be allowed to do.

I think once you've finished a movie you really have to detach from it so that you can come back and watch it as an audience member.

Stanley Kubrick was a big inspiration. People accuse me of never using my own material. But when did Kubrick? You look at his films and they are completely unique... completely separate entities.
