Cinema is a territory. It exists outside of movies. It's a place I live in. It's a way of seeing things, of experiencing life. But making films, that's supposed to be a profession.

Even a fiction film is hard to end. You can going on shooting and editing a documentary forever.

Every film starts with two or three images. Then I try to edit these images.

I care about cinema even though I haven't made many films.

We all get a little tired of being ourselves sometimes. The answer is to reinvent yourself, but how do you do that and what is the cost?

I thank Henry James for the scene in the hotel room, that I stole from Portrait Of A Lady… This particular scene is the most beautiful scene ever written.

It's incredible how much cinema can do. We forget.
