I Believe In Creative Control. No Matter

Life Is Very, Very Complicated, And So Films Should Be Allowed To Be, Too.

Films Are 50 Percent Visual And 50 Percent Sound. Sometimes Sound Even Overplays The Visual.

Black Has Depth.. You Can Go Into It.. And You Start Seeing What You're Afraid Of. You Start Seeing What You Love, And It Becomes Like A Dream.

Stories Have Tangents; They Open Up And Become Different Things. You Can Still Have A Structure, But You Should Leave Room To Dream. If You Stay True To Your Ideas, Filmmaking Becomes An Inside-out, Honest Kind Of Process. And If It's An Honest Thing For You, There's A Chance That People Will Feel That, Even If It's Abstract.
