Making Films Has Got To Be One

Music Is, For Me, A Great Tool Of A Filmmaker, The Same Way Cinematography, The Acting, Editing, Post-production, The Costumes Are. You Know, To Help You Tell A Story.

I Don't Really Analyze My Stuff When I Write. I Write About Stuff That I'm Interested In, That I'm Feeling At That Particular Time. When I Stand Back And Look At The Complete Work, I Might See Themes That Run Through The Whole Film, But I'm Not Really Conscious Of It When I'm Doing It.

Since The Days Of Slavery, If You Were A Good Singer Or Dancer, It Was Your Job To Perform For The Master After Dinner.

I Think It Is Very Important That Films Make People Look At What They've Forgotten.

I Think If People Looked At My Body Of Work, They'd See A Great Breadth Of Work.
