If You're Not Allowed To Experiment Anymore

A Lot Of The Young People Make Beautiful Films Or Big Films Or Are Able To Finance Them, But They Can't Get Anyone To Distribute Them, They Can't Get Anyone To See Them, So They Go To These Thousands Of Film Festivals. So I Still Believe That Even Though A Young Kid Might Be Able To Make A Masterpiece Or Something That Changes The Direction Of Cinema, The Issue Of How To Get It To People Is Still Not Solved.

I Was Never Sloppy With Other People's Money. Only My Own. Because I Figure, Well, You Can Be.

Most Directors Have One Masterpiece By Which They Are Known. Kurosawa Has At Least Eight Or Nine.

I've Been Blessed With Enough Wealth That I Can Make A Film Myself Up To A Certain Budget. So One Way I Thought I Would Reinvent Myself Was Just To Make These Very Small, Personal Films That I've Financed Myself.

I Don't Think There's Any Artist Of Any Value Who Doesn't Doubt What They're Doing.
