I always remember my dad saying, "No one makes a remake unless they are trying to make money; there is no reason for it." It was not an honorable thing to do.
Sofia CoppolaI never studied directing and I never really thought about doing it, and then I just found myself in that situation and tried it. I like to be observing everything else, and I get self-conscious in front of the camera.
Sofia CoppolaItโs about misunderstandings between people and places, being disconnected and looking for moments of connection. There are so many moments in life when people donโt say what they mean, when they are just missing each other, waiting to run into each other in a hallway.
Sofia CoppolaI try to just make what I want to make or what I would want to see. I try not to think about the audience too much.
