I also have experience working with American producer Roger Corman who knows a lot of secrets in making movies look bigger than their budget.

If you know exactly what your character knows, its a drama.

Every commercial covers different ground, different ideas, and it's my profession to direct and to tell stories - for me, it's very organic.

Night Watch itself is a very Russian movie. Its impossible to imagine this kind of movie somewhere else: a movie with a depressing ending, a lot of inexplicable storylines, strange characters. Its a Russian reflection of American film culture.

Its a big problem for American movies that all their movies are produced to be global.

Russian directors, we are shooting the same streets. The same things. Tom Jacobson has a fresh eye and found very interesting and very cool locations and angles and characters.

The Russian famous actors involved [into The Darkest Hour], they are very creative and they will create sympathetic characters.
