I always loved comic books and I'm still a great fan of the graphic novel.

The graphic novel form really interests me and I like the freedom that format offers.

I think the problem with the cinema currently is that so much of the money that goes movies that offer a certain kind of repetition.

When you get into making movies, then the physical mundane reality of life must be presented. But in comics you can jack it up and work in shorthand.

I'm always happy to talk to somebody; it's flattering that people remember your movies. Especially some movie that you did, for Christ's sake, almost 35 years ago, or what's especially pleasant is if you're talking about some movie that you did 35 years ago and they're 20 years old.

I don't much like looking back.
