I Think Cynicism Lasts. Sentimentality Ages, Dates

I Think If You Watch Most Of My Films With The Sound Off, You Could Still Tell What's Going On.

The Best Cinema Is About Ethics.

I Like To Think Of Film-making Not Just As An Act Of Personal Self-aggrandisement But Rather As An Act Of Public Service.

I Love Comedies. I Take Comedy Very Seriously As A Form. It's A Serious Form, Involving A Certain Way Of Looking At Life, Specifically The Painful Aspects Of Life. I Get Asked, "how Can You Have Such Failures In Your Films?" Well, What Else Is Life About? There's Some Sense Of Constant Failure In Something. Humor Gives You A Distance From It.

What Is Filmmaking But Groping In The Dark?
