I don't really enjoy filming.
Working in films, there are hundreds of odd moments.
'Once Upon a Time in the West' is one of my favorite films.
I would love to do films - ones that get seen.
I want my films to be seen everywhere.
The films that I do tend to polarise people's views.
Mr Weissman -- Tell us about the film you're going to make. Oh, sure. It's called "Charlie Chan In London". It's a detective story. Set in London? Well, not really. Most of it takes place at a shooting party in a country house. Sort of like this one,...
One thing you'll learn when you're in the business of selling utter shite to the Great British Public is that there's really no bottom to where they'll go. Shit food, shit TV, shit bands, shit films, shit houses. There is absolutely no fucking bottom...
Cinema is a mixed form. L'Avventura has characters, it has social context, and these things are not trivial. Its plot is the disappearance of a disappearance. Possibly the most frightening plot imaginable. Forgetting the dead, whom all of history tel...
It would be inappropiate, undignified, at 38, to conduct friendships or love affairs with the ardour or intensity of a 22 year old. Falling in love like that? Writing poetry? Crying at pop songs? Dragging people into photobooths? Taking a whole day t...
In turkle time a lin is the briefest moment that can just about be measured. Ninety lins make a tikk, one hundred tikks make a lod, thirty eight lods make a yan, the time it takes the planet Ankor to make one complete turn in the path of the star, Ru...
Practice does not make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect.
Tomatoes and oregano make it Italian; wine and tarragon make it French. Sour cream makes it Russian; lemon and cinnamon make it Greek. Soy sauce makes it Chinese; garlic makes it good.
Poetry is a totally different art than film.
The 1980s really ended for me in 1992 with the film Kika.
Within the process of filming, unexpected situations occur.
Film has always been where my heart is.
Film is an itch I have yet to scratch.
I'm only as rich as my next film.
What I like about film is it explores imperfections.
There's no wrong way to experience a film.
