I'm A Moviemaker, Not A Documentarian. I

I Love Different Themes, Different Venues, Different Movies. I Love To Jump About And Tackle Different Subjects. I Have No Intellectual Master Plan.

And I Maintain Good Relationships With All The Studios So I've Never Been Bullied Into Any Cut, Frankly.

I Think Going Into Space Would Be Like Going Deep Into The Ocean, Like 5,000 Meters Down. When You Go Down That Far, It's Just Awfully Black. There's Not Much There Except Mud And Some Particles. I Imagine Space Would Be A Similar Thing. The Only Difference Is You're Hoping To Bump Into Some Sort Of Intelligent Extraterritorial Being.

I Also Love Australian Movies. I Love Muriel's Wedding - I've Seen In Six Times. Baz Luhrmann's Best Movie Is Strictly Ballroom... Without Question.

Audiences Are Less Intrigued, Honestly, By Battle. They're More Intrigued By Human Relations. If You're Making A Film About The Trappings Of The Period, And You're Forgetting That Human Relationships Are The Most Engaging Part Of The Storytelling Process, Then You're In Trouble.
