And in movies you must be a gambler. To produce films is to gamble.

Cinema is gambling. It is better to gamble on a unique film even if it seems like suicide.

When you make a film, it's a bet. You don't know how the film is going to be, anyway.

Making a film, every film, is a big gamble, large or small. The more that you do it, the more you're aware of that.

The movie business is a big gamble.

Filmmaking is a chance to live many lifetimes.

There's always gonna be people with a lot of money making film, and the goal is to make profit and carry on. It is a business. The goal is to make a living doing it and to be comfortable.

Well, I started thinking about what you were saying about how your movies need to make a profit. Now, what is the one thing, if you put it in a movie, it'll be successful?

Somewhere after you have few successful films, there is a fear of losing what you have got. It is very easy in the beginning, as you are a risk taker, have nothing to lose, and there is no perception about you.

If a film is not a success, then that's just the way things are. Nothing I can do can make a difference. I have stopped worrying about it.
