If you're doing a music film, you've got to be singing about something.
I don't think it's sacrilegious to remake any movie, including a good or even great movie.
I was a sort of rock journalist - whatever that is - in London in the late '60s.
Maybe that's where the new art comes in - to somehow have your eye on the marketplace and harness your art to come up with something you can be proud of creatively.
I'm guided by my enthusiasm.
I've never had a good game plan. At a certain point, making independent films became more and more appealing to me because I like freshness and originality.
