Movies are not scripts - movies are films; they're not books, they're not the theatre.

The rules are learnt in order to be broken, but if you don't know them, then something is missing.

There was a village watercolour society and they'd come and paint in my field. I watched them from the window, the way they would struggle this way and that to find the perfect moment. God has made every angle on that beautiful, and I felt that tremendously.

Years ago I had a house in Sussex, it was like Arcadia, with an old Victorian bridge, a pond and the Downs.

What makes God laugh is people who make plans.

Movies are not scripts - movies are films; they're not books, they're not the theatre.
