I want to show audiences I can act.

You have to make films you feel strongly about. And then hope you can find the audience.

Your audience gives you everything you need. They tell you. There is no director who can direct you like an audience.

I make movies that audiences like, that I'd want to see. That's all.

Audiences are very willing to be taken somewhere, and to ask an audience beforehand what it wants is probably, I think, a mistake. Much better you should tell them what you want and hope they agree with it.

I know doing movies is where I need to be. That's where my audience wants to see me.

What you want is the thing that critics love and audiences love, but that's the hardest thing to do.

I need an audience way more than an audience needs me.
