My Father Was An Extraordinary Man.

I've Always Felt That, Although Truffaut Was Greatly Revered And Admired, At The Same Time, In Terms Of Film And How Much He Loved Film, He Was Underestimated.

Any Change In Form Produces A Fear Of Change, And That Has Accelerated. Marketing Is The Death Of Invention, Because Marketing Deals With The Familiar.

They Think Something's Gone Wrong, But In Don't Look Now, For Instance, One Scene Was Made By A Mistake. It's The Scene Where Donald Sutherland Goes To Look For The Policeman Who's Investigating The Two Women.

Movies Are Not Scripts - Movies Are Films; They're Not Books, They're Not The Theatre. It's A Completely Different Discipline, It Exists On Its Own. I Would Say That The Beauty Of It Is It's Not The Theatre, It's Not Done Over Again. It's Done In Bits And Pieces. Things Are Happening Which You Can't Get Again. I Forbid Anyone To Say "cut", The Soundman, The Operator, Or Whatever.
