I said I would do all the films about the commercials, and the films about ball-bearings and Ford tractors and so on, if once a year they gave me money for a free film.
The British cinema had been very dull and conformist.
I'm now beginning to feel that the pessimistic vision is not for the movies.
A big element of what they regard as conformity is simply a desire to have an audience.
Minority views expressed in films simply don't sell tickets.
A style is not a matter of camera angles or fancy footwork, it's an expression, an accurate expression of your particular opinion.
