I'm terrible at horror movies, by the way. I get scared so easily.

One of the joys of going to the movies was that it was trashy, and we should never lose that.

I love films. I love fiction films, too. I do. I love making them, but it has to be the right one. Hopefully, I'll never become a director for hire. It's horrible to make a film that you're not really interested in.

The beauty of history is that historians have the ability to find patterns, the big picture. When you make a movie, you try to find that. I'm doing in the cinema what historians try to do in their own media.

Every day that you get up, it's some kind of victory if you're making a good product, or working on a project that can only help mankind.

Independence is a state of mind. Independence is spirit without category.
