I Was Born At A Bad Time

Hospitals Are Places That You Have To Stay In For A Long Time, Even If You Are A Visitor. Time Doesn't Seem To Pass In The Same Way In Hospitals As It Does In Other Places. Time Seems To Almost Not Exist In The Same Way As It Does In Other Places.

Yes, Women Are Stronger Than Us. They Face More Directly The Problems That Confront Them, And For That Reason They Are Much More Spectacular To Talk About. I Don't Know Why I Am More Interested In Women, Because I Don't Go To Any Psychiatrists, And I Don't Want To Know Why.

All My Movies Have An Autobiographical Dimension, But That Is Indirectly, Through The Characters. In Fact I Am Behind Everything That Happens And That Is Said, But I Am Never Talking About Myself In First Person. Something In Me - Probably A Dislike Of Cheap Exhibitionism- Stops Me From Approaching A Project Too Autobiographically.

I Was Born At A Bad Time For Spain, But A Really Good One For Cinema.
