I'm Very Interested In Variations.

I Always Start With Characters Rather Than With A Plot, Which Many Critics Would Say Is Very Obvious From The Lack Of Plot In My Films - Although I Think They Do Have Plots - But The Plot Is Not Of Primary Importance To Me, The Characters Are.

You Are The Accumulations Of Your Experiences At Any Given Point. And When You Express Something Those Things Come Out. The Thing Is I Hate Seeing My Films When I'm Done With Them, So I Don't Look Back As A Chart Of My Life, But I Leave It As A Kind Of Chart. Though, It Is A Photograph, Captured.

The Counterculture Is Always Repackaged And Made Into A Product. It's Part Of America.

I'm Still Trying To Learn How To Do It, I'm Still Trying To Figure Out How To Make Films, But, Yeah, It Started Then [in 1979].

I Like Repetition, But I Really, Really Like Variations, Synchronistic Things That Happen Where You're Not Really Thinking About Them.
