It's The Duty Of Art

I Never Use Soundtrack; It Is Always Part Of The Story.

A Strict Form Such As Mine Cannot Be Achieved Through Improvisation.

I Like To Write For Actors I Know And With Whom I've Worked Before. You Can Write To Their Strengths And Weaknesses And Write Roles That Are Better Suited To Them.

Personally, I Can't Stand Violence. In Any Standard American Mainstream Movie, There's 20 Times More Violence Than In Any One Of My Films, So I Don't Know Why Those Directors Aren't Asked Why They're Such Specialists For Violence.

When Making A Film, I'm Never Concerned About Whether The Theme Is New Or Whether It's Been Done Before In Cinema Or Not. I'm Led To Make Films If There's A Theme That Interests Me Or I Experience Something In My Own Life That Confronts Me With Something That I Want To Deal With.
