Freedom comes with a lot of responsibility. When you are by yourself, you have to develop a third eye.
From Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Time starts out as a notion. But after you turn fifty, time is not a notion anymore but a fact that you start feeling clearly, and in a way, it pushes you to become present in the present.
I'm very curious, I guess, as a human being.
As a Third World citizen, I always feel that I need to express my point of view. Sometimes the points of view of Third World countries are never expressed. We don't have that possibility, sometimes, to spread what we feel and how we see things.
I think that my films are basically family stories, beyond the fact that they are global and have political and social commentary.
I began to learn about the camera and the actors. That gave me a lot of the skills. At the same time, advertising gives you a lot of vices, for example, an obsession for a superficial look, but at the same time, it gives you the capacity to synthesize the story - tell a story in one minute.
It's hard for me to work for somebody else. I can work with someone, but not for someone.
I know how to work with people. I've worked with the same people for 10 years. I'm not that kind of auteur. I hear ideas.
When you have something that is bothering you, and then you articulate, take the time to really express it and see it clearly, to recognize. To acknowledge that is already a liberating energy.
In hotels, every time I make a reservation and they never find my name, they never can pronounce it; it's so long, and sometimes they confuse.
