I didn't want to do the sitcom thing, but I didn't know what else to do.

There's an ecstasy about doing something really good on film: the composition of a shot, the drama within the shot, the texture... It's palpable.

I think making a good film shot is joyful.

We live in grief for having left the womb, for having left the teat, then school, then home. In my case, it was leaving marriages, and the death of my wife.

Is there a God? There is, but we don't know where. Or who. And, indeed, why.

I want to discover a truth for myself that is really true. Whether it's a piece of scientific knowledge, or a philosophical truth.

But if you want to know the truth, the weirdest thing that has happened has been my discovery that people who attend the conventions are filled with love.
