I really want to do something where I can show my physicality - something with a lot of action. Action would be fun. I'd really like to do that.
Iraq will not allow any action on its soil that could harm the U.S. We don't want any action from our soil to target our neighbors.
I was critical of race-based affirmative action early on in my career and I've changed my mind. And I've publicly acknowledged that I was wrong.
Thinking before taking actions is useful only if you are going to take action, otherwise you are wasting time and insulting your mind.
Be mindful of the link between action and outcome. Ask yourself: If I repeat today's action 365 times, will I be where I want to be in a year?
He who truly believes that which prompts him to an action has looked upon the action to lust after it, he has committed it already in his heart.
Oh my God, I love UCLA so much. Their film school is great because it's unstructured, so there's a freedom to fail in there and just tell your story, and everybody makes a film. It's so important to have that freedom in film school because that's wha...
When you're making a film, you don't really have time to consider what the whole of your film is. And then, when you're releasing your film and promoting your film, you're looking at it in a different way. Then, as you move away from it, you start to...
There certainly is no secret in that there are plenty of people who don't like plenty of my movies. Each one of my films is personal; each one of my films is emotionally autobiographical. And I like directors who do that. With each one of my films, I...
If African film makers had one-tenth the amount commanded by film makers the world over - even the amount used by so-called shoestring film makers - I think we would see quite an explosion of African films on the world scene.
I don't care about Hollywood films. I'm not against Hollywood films, you know? Hollywood films were very good before, in the 1950s.
When I was in film school, it was said that all good films were characterised by some form of humour.
I want to make films that are political and social. Films with a message or an idea. Films that dare to ask.
There are some films that really break the mold, and some films that don't. I've been looking for films that break the mold a bit.
I'm very happy with the success of short films. In fact, for me, the short films make more money than the features.
I like the Edinburgh Film Festival, and I've liked what I've experienced of Glasgow's Film Festival too.
I like voice-over in films, and most of my films have been voice-over films.
In German one of the terms for imagination is the compound word Einbildungskraft: literally, the "power ( Kraft)" of "forming ( Bildung)" into "one (Ein)." Here I want us to reflect about faith as a kind of imagination. Faith forms a way of seeing ou...
For the casual viewer, Kurosawa’s films can be an exercise in endurance.
It's hard to make a film in Britain. It's hard to raise money. The best stuff that is shot on film in Britain is usually shot on film for television.
I want to do comedy films, serious films - I admire the actors who fly under the radar but get loads done, pop up in a lot of good films.
