I like DVDs so much - it's such a better format than VHS.

Good directing is about getting the performance to be just what's right for the movie.

When you look at our world, the truth is that we're all under the influence of politics.

I try to address my audiences intelligently. The man in the street counts, but sometimes he forgets that he counts.

The actor is concerned with his own bit of it, but the director's somehow trying to work the whole thing into a much bigger picture. It's like conducting an orchestra.

I think the job of movie reviewing can be really tough. If a film has layers that need to be thought about, it's easy to get missed the first time around.

I began to feel that, in a sense, we were all prisoners of our own history.
