There Can Be No Censorship

The Public Buys "art" - But The Word Is Drained Of Its Meaning.

Ingmar Bergman Is A Long Way From Me, But I Admire Him. He, Too, Concentrates A Great Deal On Individuals; And Although The Individual Is What Interests Him Most, We Are Very Far Apart. His Individuals Are Very Different From Mine; His Problems Are Different From Mine - But He's A Great Director. So Is Fellini, For That Matter.

Fitzgerald Said A Very Interesting Thing In His Diary; That Human Life Proceeds From The Good To The Less Good - That Is, It's Always Worse As You Go On. That's True.

Actors Are Always A Little High At Work. Acting Is Their Drug. So When You Put The Brakes On, They're Naturally A Little Disappointed.

I Never Think In Terms Of Alienation; It's The Others Who Do. Alienation Means One Thing To Hegel, Another To Marx And Yet Another To Freud; So It Is Not Possible To Give A Single Definition, One That Will Exhaust The Subject. It Is A Question Bordering On Philosophy, And I'm Not A Philosopher Nor A Sociologist. My Business Is To Tell Stories, To Narrate With Images - Nothing Else. If I Do Make Films About Alienation - To Use That Word That Is So Ambiguous - They Are About Characters, Not About Me.
