For me personally, I love art and artists of all mediums and we've seen madness is more often than not present in the greatest painters, poets, writers, and songwriters in history.

What is fiction or cinema if not escape?

Myth is very powerful and fiction is very powerful.

When work resonates with a person, whether it is literature or film or music, then they want to know more about the artist. That's very natural.

There's nothing I love more than a great truth-is-stranger-than-fiction story.

In terms of legend, people do have a need, but I think you can't have a legend without the work or the art that comes before it.
