I Haven't Got Anything Against Films That

I Don't Want To Make Pompous, Serious Films.

Basically, Actors Arrive In A Bubble. They Have A Little Sealed Bubble Around Them And It's Basically [comprised Of] Their Agents, Their Last Film, Their Next Film, Their Press Agent, And Their Per Diems - All These Things, They Cocoon Themselves With And You Have To Puncture That Bubble On Each Of Them To Make Them Be In Your Film.

It Just Seduces You When You Read A Story And Your Brain Relates To It. You Recognize Or Connect With It. You Identify With It; You're Bound To.

When You Have Children Your Own Hypocrisy Becomes More Apparent Because You're Telling Them How To Behave, And You're Not Behaving Like That Yourself. So It Obliges One To Really Go In And Try To Look At Why There Is A Huge Gulf Between How One Knows One Wants To Behave And How One Actually Does Behave.

The Perfect Equation Is Form Equals Content. The Style Of The Film Reflects The Story, And That's What You're Always Aiming For. You're Not Always Necessarily Successful At It, But That's The Ambition That You're Trying To Do.
