I Think I Made Good Movies.

I Think Feature Film Can Be Quite Conservative, Because You Have To Now Get Audiences To Come Out, And It's Quite A Hard Thing To Do. Of Course, Television Can Be Conservative Too.

I Have To Admit That I Had A Lot Of Problems With Poetry.

But Short Films Are Not Inferior, Just Different. I Think The Short Gives A Freedom To Film-makers. What's Appealing Is That You Don't Have As Much Responsibility For Storytelling And Plot. They Can Be More Like A Portrait, Or A Poem.

For Me, Being A Director Is About Watching, Not About Telling People What To Do. Or Maybe It's Like Being A Mirror; If They Didn't Have Me To Look At, They Wouldn't Be Able To Put The Make-up On.

I Seem To Have Been Able To Make A Career Out Of Doing What I Feel Like Doing, So Why Not Keep Doing It? What's Corrupting Is Wanting To Be More Important. You Want To Be More Arty - You Get Your Identity From That. Or You Get Your Identity Out Of Making More Money.
