But I won't work with the exact same crew film after film because I feel the work would get a little complacent.

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

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.

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

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.

I like cinema. I am very fond of it. But from time to time I feel like having some time on my own.

My movies are, more or less, very short. I'm terrified of boring an audience.
