Eraserhead Is My Most Spiritual

So Much Of What Happened To Me Is Good Fortune. But I Would Say: Try To Get A Job That Gives You Some Time; Get Your Sleep And A Little Bit Of Food; And Work As Much As You Can. There's So Much Enjoyment In Doing What You Love. Maybe This Will Open Doors, And You'll Find A Way To Do What You Love.

I Like To Make Films Because I Like To Go Into Another World. I Like To Get Lost In Another World. And Film To Me Is A Magical Medium That Makes You Dream... Allows You To Dream In The Dark. It's Just A Fantastic Thing, To Get Lost Inside The World Of Film.

I Believe In Creative Control. No Matter What Anyone Makes, They Should Have Control Over It.

When You Get An Idea, So Many Things Come In That One Moment. You Could Write The Sound Of That Idea, Or The Sound Of The Room It's In. You Could Write The Clothes The Character Is Wearing, What They're Saying, How They Move, What They Look Like. Instead Of Making Up, You're Actually Catching An Idea, For A Story, Characters, Place, And Mood - All The Stuff That Comes. When You Put A Sound To Something And It's Wrong, It's So Obvious. When It's Right, The Whole Is Greater Than The Sum Of The Parts. That's A Magical Thing That Can Happen In Cinema.
