Remember, Pain Is Temporary; Film Is Forever.

There's No Real Rules About What You Do [while Directing]; It's Just You Just Use Your Instincts As To The Pacing Of A Film And What Is Repetitive And What Is The Minimum Amount You Can Get Away With To Tell The Story, That Scene Didn't Make It In.

New Zealand Is Not A Small Country But A Large Village.

Film Is Such A Powerful Medium. It's Like A Weapon And I Think You Have A Duty To Self-censor.

There's A Generation Of Children Who Don't Like Black And White Movies. There's A Level Of Impatience Or Intolerance.

I Find That In The Process Of Making A Film You're Constantly Discovering Things That You Never Even Imagined Would Work At The Beginning.
