If You Try To Act, You're Going

For A Filmmaker, It's A Rare Chance To Do A Personal Film On A Big Canvas.

When You Go For Something Because You're Curious About It, You Get Psyched Up About The Chance Of Getting Into It. It's Like An Actor Meets A Role, And You Slip Into That Body And See What Happens, To Experience Certain Conditions, To Adopt A Certain Character. Even Shooting Is A Study Of The Character. I Think Both The Character And The Actor, And Eventually The Filmmaker - Myself - Are Finding A Way To Accept Their Environment And Being Accepted And Feel Comfortable Of Themselves.

I Don't Have Incredible Knowledge About Films Or Of Filmmaking History; I'm Not That Kind Of Person.

If You Try To Act, You're Going To Look Like You're Acting. So Don't Act.

Basically The Movies I Make Are My Life, So I Choose How I Want To Live My Life For The Next Two Years. So That's A Decision I Have To Make. At Some Point If I Feel There Are Enough Elements - It Doesn't Even Have To Have Great Characters Or Great Stories - It's Just Elements That Can Get My Excitement And Curiosity For One Or Two Years, Then I'll Jump In And I'll Find Out What That Is. Then I Have To Do [interviews Like This] And Rationalize Why I Do This.
