The L.a. Weather Is A

Americans Are Hidden Dragons To Me.

When You Go For Something Because You're Curious About It, You Get Psyched Up About The Chance Of Getting Into It. It's Like An Actor Meets A Role, And You Slip Into That Body And See What Happens, To Experience Certain Conditions, To Adopt A Certain Character. Even Shooting Is A Study Of The Character. I Think Both The Character And The Actor, And Eventually The Filmmaker - Myself - Are Finding A Way To Accept Their Environment And Being Accepted And Feel Comfortable Of Themselves.

Usually With This Genre The First Thing That Happens Is A Good Fight Sequence To Show That You're In Good Hands. So We Broke That Rule. I Think A Lot Of That Comes From The Western Audience.

Thinking Back To Those Earlier Days, I Felt I Was Weak When I Wasn't Making Movies, And Then When I Was, I Thought I Was Weak As A Family Member.

I Think Each Movie-making Process Is A Very Exhausting And Satisfying And Fulfilling Experience For Me.
