I think I got people confidence because I was not looking at them like insects that I would film.

I don't watch my own films. There is little time; I'd rather see another film.

When I started I did not know I wanted to be a filmmaker. I started - I made a film. Then when I finished I said, Oh my god it's so beautiful - I should be a filmmaker!

Gleaning is getting things that are abandoned. I did not abandon my early pictures, my photos, my early films. It's just going through my body of work as something I can pick from.

Film-making is a physically hard job.

I'm a pluralist. I've always argued that as many different films as possible should be made.
