I'm not one to dwell on rehearsal or preparation. I like to just go out and do it. Of course, that doesn't mean actors are free to do whatever they like, they're always being directed.

What stirs my passion is making cinema, and that means doing different things, making different types of films.

I think the best thing I learned from drawing comics is that it's a great exercise in concision.

What I expect of a movie reviewer is that he should love cinema as much as I do.

No, but it’s not because I’m getting older that I’m trying to accelerate. But something very curious is happening: The older I get, the more ideas I’m getting.

Sometimes it only takes three words, so long as they're the right words, to direct an actor in the right way.

I never storyboard. I hate it. I don't understand why so many directors want to make comic strips of their films.
