I Am Very Happy To Be Part

Life Is About Luck And It's About Circumstances And Socioeconomic Conditions And All The Rest Of It, But You Know, You Can Also Make Choices. It's About Spirit And Generosity And All The Other Things, Too.

For Me The Journey Of Making A Film Is A Journey Of Discovery As To What That Film Is. I Mean What I Do Is What Other Artists Do, Painters, Novelists, People That Make Music, Poets, Sculptors, You Name It. It's About Starting Out And Working With The Material And Discovering Through Making, Working With The Material The Artifact.

The Delineation Between The Actor And His Part Is A Practical Matter. When The Camera Runs, You Want The Actor To Be The Character.

One Of The Reasons The Whole Hollywood Way Of Making Films Wouldn't Work For Me Is Because The Way I Operate Would Be Anathema To Anyone Who Wants To Hold A Job Down In Beverly Hills.

You Will Find Hardly Any Improvising On Camera Anywhere In My Films. It's Very Structured, But It's All Worked Out From Elaborate Improvisations Over A Long Period, As You Know.
