I Am An Obsessive Flyer, Myself.

Growing Up Sucks, Doesn't It? I Understand Why People Wouldn't Want To Get Old - But It'd Be One Thing If We Became A Culture Obsessed With Eating Right, Doing Yoga, Going To Therapy And Becoming At One With Ourselves. That Be Great. But We Don't Do That. We Seem To Be Obsessed With All The Wrong Ways To Stay Young.

I'm Really Specific In The Way That I Shoot. I've Always Had A Very Good Sense Of What I Need In The Editing Room. I Used To Shoot In A Way That Drew More Attention To The Camera And I've Tried, In Each Film, To Draw Less And Less Attention To The Camera. I Think When You Pay Attention To The Shots, You're Aware Of The Fact That There's A Director.

Too Many People Believe In That [alfred] Hitchcock Thing That He Only Shot Exactly The Shots He Needed For The Dialogue He Needed And I Think That's Bullshit, Even If That Was True For That Singular Filmmaker.

I Think When You Pay Attention To The Shots, You're Aware Of The Fact That There's A Director. Really, It's The Director's Job To Disappear And Allow The Movie To Just Feel.

Things Like Facebook Have Made You Feel As Though You're Connected To Everybody. You've Got A Thousand Friends On Facebook, But You Don't Actually Talk To Anybody. You're Not Close To Anybody.
