I'm quite convinced that cooking is the only alternative to film making. Maybe there's also another alternative, that's walking on foot.

Tourism is a mortal sin.

There are deeper strata of truth in cinema, and there is such a thing as poetic, ecstatic truth. It is mysterious and elusive, and can be reached only through fabrication and imagination and stylization.

The internet doesn't have any qualities, technical qualities. It's just fast, reaching out everywhere and so, it can process that and that volume of data flows and so, but it doesn't have any qualities like "good" or "bad" or "ethical" or "non-ethical". It's humans, it's us, not the internet.

I am someone who takes everything very literally. I simply do not understand irony, a defect I have had ever since I was able to think independently.

Facts do not constitute truth.

I'm not into digital marketing, downloading, or streaming - I've always been a man of the theaters.
