We Only Have Two Hours

I Won't Make Shorthand Films, Because I Don't Want To Manipulate Audiences Into Assuming Quick, Manufactured Truths.

We Don't Take The Time To Be Vulnerable With Each Other

You Can Fail In Films Because You Don't Have The Talent, Or You Have Too Much Humility, Or You Lack Ferociousness. I'm A Gangster. If I Want Something, I'll Grab It.

I Like To Act In Films, I Like To Shoot 'em, I Like To Direct 'em, I Like To Be Around 'em. I Like The Feel Of It And It's Something I Respect. It Doesn't Make Any Difference Whether It's A Crappy Film Or A Good Film. Anyone Who Can Make A Film, I Already Love. But I Feel Sorry If They Don't Put Any Thought In It Because Then They Missed The Boat.

Art Films Aren't Necessarily Photography. It's Feeling. If We Can Capture A Feeling Of A People, Of A Way Of Life, Then We Made A Good Picture.
