How many shots does it take before the concept ay choice becomes obsolete?

I wanted to capture the excitement of house music, almost like a four-four beat, and the best way to do that was to use a language that was rhythmic and performative.

You can't just have stuff that is free and escapist, you have to have stuff that is confrontational as well. You need stuff that is mystical but you need the realism too.

I didn't have any concept of Trainspotting being published. It was a selfish act. I did it for myself.

I feel like I've exhausted guys and male friendships.

If I stop working and publishing, and TV, and film and all that, I would be dead within a couple of weeks. I don't really have that kind of off-switch.

I love doubt in a woman. It's nearly as sexy as determination.
