I Had To Find My Way Of

Making Movies Is A Way Of Understanding Myself And The World.

I Find It Hard To Deliver Straightforward Things.

Usually With This Genre The First Thing That Happens Is A Good Fight Sequence To Show That You're In Good Hands. So We Broke That Rule. I Think A Lot Of That Comes From The Western Audience.

3d Is Quite A Lot More Advanced In Animated Movies; For Live-action Movies We're Just Taking Baby Steps, We're Just In The Beginning. So When I Think Of Doing That I Was Very Excited. It Didn't Go As Far As I Think It Should, I'm Still A Novice, But I Think It's Fair To Say It's A New Cinematic Medium, Experience.

Making This Movie As A Period Piece About A Period That Was Very Recent In People's Minds. I Was In Taiwan [during The 1970s], So I Hope I Did All Right. Otherwise, It Could Be The Biggest Embarrassment Of My Life. Also, The Story Is Not Linear, It's Patchy, Like A Cubist Painting, And There Is Always The Possibility It Will Not Hold Together, It Will Fall Apart. The Tone Is Part Satire, Part Serious Drama, Part Tragedy, All Mixed Together, And It Has To Hit An Emotional Core. That's Also Very Scary.
