But I don't have such a strong desire to need to get away from filmmaking.
The strange thing is that since I've been offered lots of films I think that maybe they think that I've sold out to Hollywood. Which is not the case if anybody's listening.
In film, you have to let go sometimes.
I guess when somebody offers you a movie, you don't say no. That's what I've learned.
When I go into making a movie, personally, I don't try to bring other pieces of movies with me.
There's a tendency in this Hollywood machinery to take on too much. You end up not being able to give everything you want.
I view every film as a commitment to undertake a long journey. I suppose this has to do with my need to leave no stone unturned, and sometimes to even dig deeper into the mine.
Oh, it takes a lot for me to walk out of a film.
I've gone out of my way to not take baggage with me from film to film.
There's an old saying that you don't ever finish a movie, you abandon it, and I really believe that. I never walk away from a take and pat myself on the back.
