I Think Always My Interest In Making

I Shoot People In A Way That Makes The Audience Feel Equal To Them. And It's Hard To Express And It's Hard To Execute But I Think It Works On Every Level - The Choice Of The Material The Choice Of The Actor, My Relationship With The Actor, And So On.

I Kind Of Like The Idea Of Taking A Concept And Going All The Way With It, Even If It's Not Completely Plausible. It's Something That I Like About Making Movies. You Have A Concept That Maybe Would Not Work In Real Life, But You Can Make It Work In The World You're Creating.

I've Always Liked The Idea Of Inventing Stuff. My Father Told Me, Because I Was Naïve, I Would Think Things Could Work And Therefore Do Them, Because I Would Have No Doubt Even Though There Was No Solid Foundation For This Confidence. I Don't Think I Would Be A Real Inventor. But When I Set Out To Do Animation, Which Was My First Step Into Film-making, I Realised I Could Achieve This Idea. I Could Take Some Elements, Create A Sort Of Clumsy Invention, And Make Them Work For The Camera.

I Like The Days When All The Filmmakers Had Was A Film Roll, A Camera And A Gangster. The Mack Sennett Comedies Were All Like That. They'd Create Little Teams To Go Out And Shoot Films.

I Would Define Myself As Being Naive And Perverse At The Same Time. And I Think That If That Is Consistent It Will Make The Tone Consistent.
