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

From the beginning [of the film The Darkest Hour], [aliens] it's a metaphor for the foreigners and from the beginning of the movie, American boys feel themselves like aliens here or they feel like Russians are aliens. There's misunderstanding or miscommunication. Then when the real aliens appear, together they have to fight to survive.

The unique idea of [The Darkest Time] movie is because in usual if you are in darkness, you are scared. But this movie is the opposite. In darkness, you are okay.

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

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

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