Audrey gave more than she ever got. The whole world is going to miss her.

I think every film I make that puts characters in jeopardy is me purging my own fears, sadly only to re-engage with them shortly after the release of the picture. I'll never make enough films to purge them all.

My dad took me to my first movie. It was 'The Greatest Show on Earth' in 1952, a movie of such scale it was actually a traumatic experience.

The public has an appetite for anything about imagination - anything that is as far away from reality as is creatively possible.

I made 'Saving Private Ryan' for my father. He's the one who filled my head with war stories when I was growing up.

There is something about killing people at close range that is excruciating. It's bound to try a man's soul.

I have to stay interested. I can't do the same thing over and over again, which is why I don't do - I've made sequels, but it's the movies that are not sequels that I enjoy the most.
