Love stories that are too simple don't deserve to have films made about them.

Working with the same people is so much quicker and frees up your energy for other things.

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

Working with a bunch of actors is like trying to tune each violin.

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.

I like films that are well-written and concise and with not a lot of room for improvisation.

I can zero in on subtle things because I'm holding the camera.
