Is this film more interesting than a documentary of the same actors having lunch?
I started when I was eight, doing super 8 films.
I would not think twice about being part of any incarnation of the 'X-Men' films.
Films are always pretentious. There's nothing more pretentious than a filmmaker.
We need less perfect but more free films.
I'm trying to broaden my range and get different characters in each film.
Seattle was a rabid film town in the '70s and '80s because it rained so much.
I still haven't made a film that defines who I am.
If a film doesn't play, people aren't going to be that nice.
But you know, as you say, the original versions of my films are getting out there, slowly.
I've often accused my grandchildren of never having seen one of my films.
I am hoping to film another ad in the summer for Carte Noire.
I worked on a film short with Frank Sinatra when I was a kid.
I think film is a world of directors. Theater is a world of actors.

I think I've made some pretty decent films in the '80s and '90s.
I love watching you – you’re a silent film of gestures

I liked The Slipper and the Rose, as I have already mentioned, because it was such a lovely film to do.
With the black and white films, one was concerned with tone.
