I find it ironic that happy endings now are called fairytale endings because there's nothing happy about most fairytale endings.

3D doesn't work quite so well with quick cuts and I probably would have done some longer takes had I really taken that information onboard.

I think my dyslexia was a vital part of my development because my inability to read and write meant that I had to find knowledge elsewhere so I looked to the cinema.

I wouldn't presume to know something, but I have lots to learn and that's what I attempt to do through my work.

Pride' is my first film with a happy ending. Before, I naively thought they were a cop-out, but now I've come to believe that happy endings and wish fulfilment are an incredibly important part of our cultural life.

There's good art and there's bad art. A lot of action films are bad art, but Paul Greengrass showed us with the Bourne films that it's possible to make an action film with a political, social conscience.

One of the things I really love about 3D is that because as we grow older on eye weakens more than the other, 3D becomes more difficult for adults to watch than it is for children who have very balanced eyes often.
