I do believe that reading can help you understand what you're writing and see what others are doing. But sometimes the desire for more information can act as an inhibitor.

It doesn't matter that the way of life shown by Hollywood was phony. It helped you hope.

I believe that people who don't achieve anything in life are isolated and resent those that are successful.

I believe realism is nothing but an analysis of reality. Film scripts have a synthetical constitution.

I'm not terribly happy about rock and roll. Certain rock music is uninspiring, numbing; it makes you feel like an idiot.

Modern American cinema seems to me superficial. The intention is to understand a certain reality, and the result is nothing but a photographing of that reality.

In film, you can't go into analytical explorations because the audience will reject that.
