I like movies that deal with trapped men. Men that need to make choices that are not obvious or easy choices. Then how do you visualize this? You create this character conflicted between two sides, because drama is about the conflict of two things, between your duty and your will, between what you want and what you can't have. It is all conflict between two things, and this is why you put your character in a place where you can visualize the conflict.

Most of us want to live in harmony and peace and be good to others. Right now, however, the world is in a very turbulent time, and our leadership has gone crazy.

As a filmmaker, you take reality and you tell a story from it.

When I was younger, I did dark movies. It was a reflection of what I saw around me.

A movie should entertain you in a way that will also open your mind. I think movies are tools to enrich your experience.

This is what art can do in our time. Unite people, and give them hope.
