If a film is very clever and well-written, that's what gives you freedom as a director.

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

When I was young, my idea was to become a filmmaker.

As a spectator, I have very eclectic taste, whether it's comedies or action or very small, intimate films. And I feel as a filmmaker I should be able to have that same eclectic taste.

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

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

You can work, shop, do everything from home, and I find this unsettling.
