Given The Events Of Even The 19th

I'm Old Enough To Have Friends And Contemporaries Who Have Long Since Retired, And That's Their Prerogative - Enough Is Enough; It Doesn't Mean A Thing To Me. But I Haven't Got Any Money, So, You Know, I Just Keep On Working.

I Try And Create For The Audience Something That Relates To Real-life Experience. When You're Meeting Somebody For The First Time, All You Have To Go On Are Your Preconceptions And Your Stereotypes And Whatever Else, But Gradually As You Get To Know Them, They Change. They Become More Three-dimensional, And You Start To See Them In Layers.

It's An Unhealthy Habit To Say That Life Is What You Make Of It, And If You Want To Be Happy, Then You Can Be Happy. That's Just Rubbish, Basically.

A Lot Of The Reasons That I'm Resistant To Making Films In The U.s. Have Nothing To Do With Not Doing A Film In Hollywood, But Rather To Do With What I'm Committed To Working On In The U.k. I Feel Very Committed To The British Film Industry And Infrastructure.

I Think It’s Important That Nobody Forgets That Although Hollywood Commercially Dominates The World Cinema, In Fact What Comes Out Of The Filmmaking Here Is Only A Tiny Slice Out Of The Massive Amount Of Operation That Goes On Around The World.
