I love the art of filmmaking very much in all aspects.

I love film - it's like painting.

My interest in filmmaking was always very much the visuals and images.

For me, art is always a kind of theater.

Filmmaking can be a fine art.

I love filmmaking, and I love the process. And I would rather do nothing else. It's a privilege to be able to paint such big pictures, so to speak.

I view filmmaking as a director's medium.

We go see theater, we take in art, because it makes us feel.

For me, the filmmaking has to be about the dramaturgy.

I began to exercise a lot of cinematic muscle with the precepts I had learned in the New York art world. Film was intriguing. I began to think of art as elitist; film was not.
