I don't see myself as a moviemaker only, you know? When I can do a picture, I do. But I don't work like a business, in pictures. I am not obliged to make one picture after the other in order to live.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I suppose I like to think of myself as a film-maker.
I make movies just as painters paint: I work where I can.
You earn very little money on independent films and I'm the provider for my home, so I do have to think of taking one for the accountant time and again and that means studio pictures.
I don't make films for other people; I make films for me.
I don't make movies because I love to act. I make movies because I like to make movies, and I like to be a part of that process.
You know, I feel like my job is to write a book. Then filmmakers come and they make a movie. And they're two really different art forms.
I guess we're all lucky to be in this profession where you can be someone else for two or three months on a film shoot. I find it restful. Vachement agreable.
As far as I'm concerned, I make movies.
I position everything else in my life around making movies.
Making movies is my profession. I like doing it a lot.
