I Take No Notice Of The Trends.

I Don't Know What The Character Is Going To Be. We Sit Down And We Create A Character, And All Of The Characters In All Of My Films Are Made Like That.

I Make Films Because I Am Endlessly Fascinated By People. I'm Fascinated Immediately To Know About The Lives That Are Going On Around Me. That Is What Drives Me. And That Is Because Everybody Matters, Everybody Is There To Be Cared About, Everybody Is Interesting And Everybody Is The Potential Central Character In A Story. Judging People Is Not Acceptable.

I Wonder If I Would Have Been Capable Of Producing Anything If I Worked In A More Conventional Way With A Prewritten Script, Because I'm Of The Procrastinator Class.

The Whole Thing About Making Films In An Organic Film On Location Is That It's Not All About Characters, Relationships And Themes, It's Also About Place And The Poetry Of Place. It's About The Spirit Of What You Find, The Accidents Of What You Stumble Across.

I Know, That Trends And All Of Those Things And Formulae That Calculate What Audiences Want To See And What Audiences Don't Want To See And Various Other Demographic Demarcations Are The Eccentric And Ludicrous Prerogative Of Hollywood Studios. But Out There In The Real World - By Which I Mean The Rest Of The World Where We Make Truthful Organic Films, Independent Films Unimpeded By Interference - It's Not About All Those Sort Of Calculating What Is Commercial. It's About Wanting To Say Things And Saying Them In A Way That Will Get Through To People.
