There's No Story If There Isn't Some

When I See The First Dailies On Any Movie, I Usually Feel That I Had No Idea How This Combination Of Ingredients Was Going To Mix Together, What It Was Going To Produce.

Paris Is A Place Where, For Me, Just Walking Down A Street That I've Never Been Down Before Is Like Going To A Movie.

The Movies I Make Tend Not To Be Quite Reality But The Characters Are Inspired By Real People And They're Always Very Personal.

A Lot Of People Have Said My Movies Are All The Same. But I Don't Actually Make An Effort To Have A Style. I'm Usually Just Thinking Of What Can We Do To Make It Funnier Or More Interesting Or Just Kind Of Refine It And It Ends Up Like That.

When Something Is Discovered By People In Movie Theaters, It's Discovered By People Who Are All Together, And There's A Sort Of Feeling Of An Event About It. And When It's On Video, It's Like Something Is Being Discovered In The Library Or Something. It's Like Having A Second Life In Public Libraries. It's Just Like Individuals, And It's Less Of A... We Can't Participate In It The Same Way.
