A film has to be like a stone in the shoe.
It's always been a lie that it's difficult to make films.
I had an almost fetishistic attraction to film technology.
When I show a film at a festival, I am showing myself. Everything is at stake for me.
When I was in film school, it was said that all good films were characterised by some form of humour.
It is more difficult to manipulate with film than, for instance, video. The problem with video is that it gives you a thousand possibilities.
I hope my films will never completely be without the ability to mark anybody.
I am the best film director in the world.
My films generally center around thousands of pictures being flashed in rapid succession to create the illusion of motion.
A film should be like a rock in the shoe.
I think it's a very strange question that I have to defend myself. I don't feel that. You are all my guests, it's not the other way around, that's how I feel.
Basically, I'm afraid of everything in life, except filmmaking.
My films are about ideals that clash with the world. Every time it's a man in the lead, they have forgotten about the ideals. And every time it's a woman in the lead, they take the ideals all the way.
