Theres A Certain Truth That You Do

Once, A French Journalist Told Me That All My Films Are The Same. I Said, 'excuse Me? I Work Hard To Make Them Different.'

I Find My Own Pain And Others' Difficult To Tolerate, So I Always Want To Try To Shift Things So They'll Be Better. But In Doing That, If I Am Coming From A Place Of Ego, I Often Cause Harm. So It's A Struggle For Me To Set My Ego Outside And Find A Softer And More Compassionate Way Of Approaching Things.
