I've been lucky over the past few years. Things have just happened for me.

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 Pan is a superhero movie; I mean, the kid flies in the end.

I think people are at their most creative when they're relaxed. I don't believe that tension is good for creativity. Everyone is relaxed and therefore can feel able to express their own individual creativity and lots of ideas come in. It's a joy like that.

Most of my choices come about through some kind of intuition or instinct, and if I need to, I'll post-rationalize them, intellectually, afterwards. But generally, they come about just by feeling.

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

I'm quite spontaneous in my decisions often. Your career is kind of what happens whilst you're busy developing other screenplays, and so it came out of the blue.
