Directing has completely changed the way I write and watch films.
I did loads of student films and fringe theatre. I worked for free a lot.
No film critic's going to say it, but 'Madagascar 3' is better than 'The Artist.'
With films, you completely immerse yourself in a character, get into who they are, live it and then release it.
The idea of a film staying in theaters for a year is something of a fantasy today.
I've only used my own voice about four times on film.
I will only do a Hollywood film when there is something special offered to me.
If I'm really honest, I'm not a huge fan of scary films.
All of my films have been autobiographical - it's all I've got to go on.
It's easy to make a film, but it's hard to make a career of being a filmmaker.
This film, Tomb Raider 2, is a big challenge. It's quite exhausting.
My dream is to continue filming until my body tells me to stop.
I was always realistic about the fact I wanted to be involved with big films.
People always seem to see echoes of their own lives in my films.
Franchises aren't to be avoided. They can be exciting, and they give you opportunities to do other films.
Id like to do an action film or a dark sort of independent piece.
I spent a couple of years doing American films. I did a few.
Nobody would want to leave that film to go get high.
Give us a break! I've hardly done anything but independent films.
I think TV shows have usurped films!
I'd rather be appreciated for my character in a film than my looks.
