I never made a film which fully satisfied me.

I don't really know what is shocking. When you tell the story of a man who is beheaded, you have to show how they cut off his head. If you don't, it's like telling a dirty joke and leaving out the punch line.

I want people to go to the movies. I am the man of the spectacle. I'm playing.

My films are the expression of momentary desires. I follow my instincts, but in a disciplined way.

With each film, i need an artistic challenge so I don't get bored! I like to tackle challenges.

Whenever I get happy, I always have a terrible feeling.

If I had killed somebody, it wouldn't have had so much appeal to the press, you see? But f-ing, you see, and the young girls. Judges want to f- young girls. Juries want to f- young girls. Everyone wants to f- young girls!
