The Truth Is In The Mystery.

Something That You Should Take Particular Notice Of Is The Fact That The Best Scripts Have Very Few Explanatory Passages. Adding Explanation To The Descriptive Passages Of A Screenplay Is The Most Dangerous Trap You Can Fall Into. It’s Easy To Explain The Psychological State Of A Character At A Particular Moment, But It’s Very Difficult To Describe It Through The Delicate Nuances Of Action And Dialogue. Yet It Is Not Impossible.

To Be An Artist Means Never To Avert One's Eyes.

The Characters In My Films Try To Live Honestly And Make The Most Of The Lives They've Been Given. I Believe You Must Live Honestly And Develop Your Abilities To The Full. People Who Do This Are The Real Heroes.

With A Good Script A Good Director Can Produce A Masterpiece; With The Same Script A Mediocre Director Can Make A Passable Film. But With A Bad Script Even A Good Director Can’t Possibly Make A Good Film. For Truly Cinematic Expression, The Camera And The Microphone Must Be Able To Cross Both Fire And Water. That Is What Makes A Real Movie. The Script Must Be Something That Has The Power To Do This.

For Me, Filmmaking Combines Everything. That's The Reason I've Made Cinema My Life's Work. In Films, Painting And Literature, Theatre And Music Come Together. But A Film Is Still A Film.
