I like films to be complete in their written form.

You may think it's very presumptuous, but I really hope that my movies are going to turn people into better people.

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.

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

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

If a film is very clever and well-written, that's what gives you freedom as a director. Part of the freedom in directing, for me, is that I'm also the camera operator. That's the place where things are less rigid, where I can adjust as I go along.

I am not a fan of westerns particularly.
