I never desired to really go to Hollywood and make films, and purely because I want my entire control, which I'm used to having.

People very quickly define success due to the amount of money something makes. In the end, I think everyone is searching for that experience. That's why we continue to go to the movies and watch television.

My initial idea was I wanted to make it a horror film, very much. At times I do enter that world.

I like doing the promotional work. It's part of the film's process. Cannes was very wonderful to premiere.

I always think once you have the lead protagonist, you cast around that character.

We live in a beauty-obsessed culture, which on one hand is absolutely fabulous, but on the flip side, is also dangerously extreme.

I feel Amazon is really bringing films into the future. So for me it was the best of both worlds.
