There is no one looking out for us. We are all alone.

I'm from that world where I feel so comfortable making small independent movies.

I'm so consistent that my director's cuts are usually 20-25 minutes longer than the released version of the movies.

You don't have your film finished when you have your director's cut finished. It's just a bunch of green screen.

Most of the time, I don't watch classics with anybody. I have to be by myself. That's my classroom.

Basically, when I'm writing something, I think about what is the subject of the piece. The subject of the piece is our fear of getting old, which is a variation on our fear of dying.

Anime is intended to have ambiguous features. That's part of the art form.
