I Take No Notice Of The Trends.

What I Do Is To Collaborate With Each Actor And Work One-on-one To Create A Character. And That Is A Matter Of Huge Complexity And Is A Combination Of A Great Deal Of Discussion And A Lot Of Practical Work. It Involves A Lot Of Consideration For The Real People Out There, And All Kinds Of Sources Of Real People. The Result Is The Character. But I'm Not Supposed To Talk About What It Is We Do, Because It's Nobody's Business.

I Am Very Happy To Be Part Of European And World Cinema As A British Filmmaker.

One Of The Reasons The Whole Hollywood Way Of Making Films Wouldn't Work For Me Is Because The Way I Operate Would Be Anathema To Anyone Who Wants To Hold A Job Down In Beverly Hills.

My Work Is About Life As You And I Experience It. You're Either Lucky Or You're Not Lucky; Either Your Relationship Works Or It Doesn't.

When I Was Young I Used To Sit In The Cinema Thinking Wouldn't It Be Great If You Could Have A Film In Which The Characters Were Like Real People Instead Of Being Like Actors.
