Having An International Voice Is Not Really

I Do Think That We Are Sometimes, As Directors, Guilty Of Portraying Or Asking Our Actors To Behave In Certain Ways That Are Perhaps Not Very Morally Acceptable. I'm Not The Only One.

I Think Violence Can Never Be Justified. At The Same Time, Nobody’s Culture Or Beliefs Should Be Insulted, That’s Not Something I Can Accept Either. But I Cannot Justify Or Accept Any Violence At All.

I Only Make Notes, I Don't Write Dialogues In Full. And The Notes Are Very Much Based On My Knowledge Of Person.

When We Start Shooting I Don't Have Rehearsals With Characters At All. So, Rather Than Pulling Them Towards Myself, I Travel Closer To Them; It's Very Much Closer To The Real Person Than Anything I Try To Create. So I Give Them Something But I Also Take From Them.

When You Take A Tree That Is Rooted In The Ground, And Transfer It From One Place To Another, The Tree Will No Longer Bear Fruit. And If It Does, The Fruit Will Not Be As Good As It Was In Its Original Place. This Is A Rule Of Nature. I Think If I Had Left My Country, I Would Be The Same As The Tree.
