Basically, I'm afraid of everything in life, except filmmaking.
From Lars von Trier
When I show a film at a festival, I am showing myself. Everything is at stake for me.
My films are about ideals that clash with the world. Every time it's a man in the lead, they have forgotten about the ideals. And every time it's a woman in the lead, they take the ideals all the way.
When I was younger, I was fascinated by David Bowie, for example. he had created an entire myth around himself. It was as important as his music.
I always do something that I've never done before.
I think it's important that we all try to give something to this medium, instead of just thinking about what is the most efficient way of telling a story or making an audience stay in a cinema.
If one devalues rationality, the world tends to fall apart.
It's always been a lie that it's difficult to make films.
Far be it from me to force anyone into either chess or dressage, but if you choose to do so yourself, in my opinion there is only one way: follow the rules.
Political correctness kills discussion.
