When you come to do the film, it is not the time to wonder why you do it. It's just how to do it

You don't want to cry over yourself, you don't want to have compassion about yourself. It's not the right place.

I don't think I'm that intellectual.

If I seem detached or distant, it's because I think this is a more exact reproduction of life, where you hide as much as you show. When I see a scene in which feelings get loudly exteriorized, I say to myself, 'Well, at least this never happens to me.' I very rarely go through this type of expression. Most of the time things are hidden or at least much more subdued.
