Most of the projects aren't that interesting anymore. There used to be a day when the studios made amazing films, and they were about human beings.

The actors come and you start seeing things happen for real.

We're living in a world that says that if you engage in mass fraud, you'll be rewarded, but if you go down the street and steal an orange juice, you get arrested.

It's hard for me to say you have to accept that the world is meaningless and the landscape is there before and after. That's not something we learn much in our culture growing up.

The job of the writer and the filmmaker is not to impose his vision on the reality, but to be inspired by the reality and create a vision out of that.

I like to give the actors the freedom, and they know they have the freedom, to change anything they want at any time.

Sometimes we have dreams, but we just can't make them. That's normal.
