I haven't changed - the public has. I'm an insider now, which is hilarious.
I never rewatch the great films of my favorite directors because I'm afraid they won't hold up.
As far as socially redeeming value, I hope I don't have any.
To me, bad taste is what entertainment is all about. If someone vomits while watching one of my films, it's like getting a standing ovation. But one must remember that there is such a thing as good bad taste and bad bad taste.
Censorship has been my best press agent my whole life.
Just make sure your children hate authority and they'll do fine.
