Theater is far superior to film in poetry, in abstract poetry.

But I don't think there has ever been anything written on the nature of violent man as deep and as thorough as Shakespeare's Titus. I think it puts all modern movies and modern exploitations of violence to shame.

When I'm working as a director, I might have an idea of my own but I'm also trying to get great ideas out of my actors. Directing is much more psychological - it's a lot like being a general. And you have to be organized. While you're making a film, you have between 2 and 500 people asking you a billion questions.

I think we all see the world from our own little unique bubble.

You program music with an image and then people are desensitized.

The idea that all violence in movies is okay simply because it happens is bull. Directors and writers have a responsibility.

It's people who are repressed and cannot express their fears that are dangerous.
