I've Always Said That To Make Movies, To Make Images And Sound, Is Possible By One Way Or Another. And It Has Not To Be Ruled By The Pharaohs Of Egypt, The Pharaohs From Hollywood Or Wherever.

That's What All My Movies Are About. That And The Idea That We're In Possession Of Certainty, Truth, Infallible Knowledge, When Actually We're Just A Bunch Of Apes Running Around. My Films Are About People Who Think They're Connected To Something, Although They're Really Not.
