I'm not into the culture of complaint. I roll up my sleeves and somehow I get it together.

I have made 70 or so films. In all my films not a single actor, a single extra, was hurt. Not one. So statistics are on my side when I say I'm clinically sane.

Roger Ebert was the last mammoth alive who was holding the flag for real movies and moviemakers.

I think I would be a good villain in a James Bond movie.

You can't have a helicopter fly over boiling lava. It would've exploded from the heat, and is just way too dangerous. The pilot of a helicopter would've flatly refused anyway.

I do not believe in the Cinema verite. Sometimes a really good lie is better than any truth.

I had complete freedom. They [Netflix] knew roughly what I was doing.
