In A Way, Putting Actors

I'm Just Thinking Of 2001, Which I Think Is The Most Expensive Independent Film Ever Made - Which Is Great, Someday I Hope I Will Do One. But I Know The Parameters When I Got Onto This Project - I Have To Take Care Of Everyone, Make Sure That They Are All On Board, And This Process Interests Me.

I'm Not Against The Technology At All, I Just Don't Like To Use It If It's Just To Mimic What You Can Do With Traditional Methods.

Perhaps My Favourite Story Is 'le Passe-muraille' By Marcel Ayme. It's About A Guy Who Wakes Up With A Weird Faculty That Means He Can Walk Through Walls. He's A Very Shy Clerk, And He Uses It To Get Revenge, Or Vent His Frustration.

There Is An Amount Of Abstraction In My Movies, And Sometimes They Don't Really Understand It Until The Film Is Finished.

I'm Not Judging The Films. People Make These Connections Through A Film, Or Because They Know Them. But The Fact That They Erase Them And Have To Start From Scratch, I Think That's An Important Point. A Lot Of Kids, When They Have A Camera, Have Tended To Do Remakes Of Existing Films. You Have A Lot Of Kids That Make Star Wars. And I Think That's Creativity, But Not As Much Creativity As Starting From Scratch.
