I like all my work equally. I look at the projects as children. I look at the experience more than the end result.

I'm not tough when it comes to people criticizing the people that I protect, and those are the actors. It makes them scared to do it again for another director.

Trust is hard to get from actors, and for me to give to actors.

I've dodged all sorts of bullets in Hollywood to get my movies made. I'm tough.

I was always intrigued with European cinema, and hated most American cinema. I didn't like the one, two, three - boom! style, with a neat and tidy ending. That was never my scene.

I want to go to places that are unexpected of me, because people really think they have me pegged. I want to do something different, like maybe do a space movie or a musical.
