I Am Partly Not Conscious

All My Movies Have An Autobiographical Dimension, But That Is Indirectly, Through The Characters. In Fact I Am Behind Everything That Happens And That Is Said, But I Am Never Talking About Myself In First Person. Something In Me - Probably A Dislike Of Cheap Exhibitionism- Stops Me From Approaching A Project Too Autobiographically.

Never Again Work In The Same Conditions In Whichyou Made Your First Film. It's Good To Take Risks, But Not Thatmuch Risk.

I Don't Want To Imitate Life In Movies; I Want To Represent It. And In That Representation, You Use The Colors You Feel, And Sometimes They Are Fake Colors. But Always It's To Show One Emotion.

I Don't Want The Director To Have To Make Any Decisions Except To Say "action" And "cut."

Once We Actually Have The Production Script After Many Rewrites, At That Point Is When I Start To Decide What The Look And Colors Will Be. I Work Like A Painter, Even Though I'm Working In Three Dimensions. I'm Working With Chairs. I'm Working With Walls. But Even Things Like The Floor Or The Walls That People Might Think Are Not Important, They Actually Do Influence The Visual Look Of The Film. These Are Also Things That I Have To Think About.
