People Often Criticize My Films For Being Pessimistic; There Are Certainly Many Reasons For Being Pessimistic But I Don’t See My Films That Way. They’re Founded In The Belief That Revolution Doesn’t Belong On The Cinema Screen But Outside In The World. Never Mind If A Film Ends Pessimistically But Exposes Certain Mechanisms Clearly Enough To Show People How They Work And The Ultimate Effect Is Not Pessimistic. My Goal Is To Reveal Such Mechanisms In A Way That Makes People Realize The Necessity Of Changing Their Own Reality.
