I Probably Have Genius. But No Talent.

I Just Finished A Film A Few Days Ago, And I Came Home And Said I Learned So Much Today. So If I Can Come Home From Working On A Little Film After Doing It For 45 Years And Say, "i Learned So Much Today," That Shows Something About The Cinema. Because The Cinema Is Very Young. It's Only 100 Years Old.

The Great Hope Is That People Who Wouldn't Normally Make Films Will Be Making Them. Suddenly, One Day Some Little Fat Girl In Ohio Is Going To Be The New Mozart And Make A Beautiful Film With Her Father's Camera And For Once The So Called Professionalism About Movies Will Be Destroyed Forever - And It Will Really Become An Art Form.

I Became Quite Successful Very Young, And It Was Mainly Because I Was So Enthusiastic And I Just Worked So Hard At It.

If You're Not Allowed To Experiment Anymore For Fear Of Being Considered Self-indulgent Or Pretentious Or What Have You, Then Everyone's Going To Just Stick To The Rules - There's Not Going To Be Any Additional Ideas.

An Essential Element Of Any Art Is Risk. If You Don't Take A Risk Then How Are You Going To Make Something Really Beautiful, That Hasn't Been Seen Before?
