It would be real nice to have some kind of bell or whistle attached to this film - it would give it a longer life. People seem to need that validation to go to a film these days.
'The Wine of Summer' is a beautiful film about love lost and found, and the complexities of life while discovering who you are. It was filmed primarily in and around Barcelona, and the imagery is breathtaking.
I don't think his life has been in any way disfigured by the film. The film did disclose some difficult facts.
Learning to make films is very easy. Learning what to make films about is very hard.
I like some of the early silent films because I love to watch how actors had to play then. What would interest me today is to do a silent film.
I love the grandiosity, how sweepingly entertaining films can be. And I think there's a place for films that pry more into the human condition.

The film of tomorrow will not be directed by civil servants of the camera, but by artists for whom shooting a film constitutes a wonderful and thrilling adventure.
I wanted to be a martial arts film star when I was a teenager.
I like the movie 'Das Boot,' the German film made in the '80s. I found out it was a series that was made into a film for the U.S.

If one horror film hits, everyone says, 'Let's go make a horror film.' It's the genre that never dies.
I listen to Morricone, the famed Italian film composer, while I'm working.
A film - especially when it's a personal film - is going to hit somebody or it's not. There's nothing you can do about it.
I went to film school to make films just because you're in control of the story.
And you know, we did it as an independent film, and we weren't expecting it to be on television, and Lifetime ended up buying it. And the viewers responded intensely to that film.
I actually went to film school, but I didn't like it. I'm basically self-taught.
Every Pixar film, when we start developing the story, it takes about four years to make one of our films.
I've always felt that, although Truffaut was greatly revered and admired, at the same time, in terms of film and how much he loved film, he was underestimated.
