I Can't Really See How Anybody Could

I've Long Since Stopped Worrying About How I'm Portrayed In The Press Because Ultimately It's Not That Important. Everyone Who Knows Me Knows I Do What I Do With The Greatest Integrity.

Because Of The Way That I Work With The Actors And Because A Scene Is Not In This Rigid And Literal Interpretation Of Something Written, I Can Constantly Change Stuff, Which Means I Can Get A Scene Absolutely Perfect, And Then When We Go To Shoot It, The Requirements Of The Shot Mean It Would Be Useful To Extend The Dialogue Or Take A Line Out Or Swap Things Around. So The Camera Doesn't Serve The Action. The Action Serves The Camera. That's Important. So It Becomes More And More Organic And Integrated.

Some Of My Favorite Movies Are Hollywood Movies. Hollywood Is Part Of The Cinematic Spectrum. I Nurture A Healthy Love-hate Relationship With Hollywood.

It's Important To Be True To The Events, But The Most Important Thing Is To Get To The Essence Of The Experience. Not To Be Bogged Down In An Academic Way By A Notion Of The Truth. First Of All, The Truth Is An Illusive And Spurious Concept.

There's A Constant Drip And Trickle Of Life That Goes Into One's Awareness Really And Consciousness Of Things.
