When I was in film school, it was said that all good films were characterised by some form of humour.

I am a man who likes to control things, and if I can't control them totally I will not control them at all.

I am a man of very many anxieties but doing strange things with the camera is not one of them.

It is more difficult to manipulate with film than, for instance, video. The problem with video is that it gives you a thousand possibilities.

Political correctness kills discussion.

I'm fighting against my will to control. I think that is what I am doing. I would like to accept things in life, in all matters of life I would like to accept, but it's so difficult. I think we all have this struggle.
