Making movies is a way of understanding myself and the world.

Making movies is difficult and you get disorientated sometimes - even when you're working with fantastic talent.

Making movies is both entirely ludicrous and incredibly hard. It's a preposterous way to spend your time. You give up a lot for the privilege of doing it, and one of the things you get are relationships of immense trust that you see forged in situations of immense stress.

Making movies is really hard. It's a very complex process, with many, many variables.

As far as I'm concerned, I make movies.

Making movies is time-consuming and it's boring. You spend most of your time waiting between takes. It's like a big machine that moves slowly.

Making movies, you're like an independent contractor - you come in, you have a specific job, and a lot of what you do is completely manipulated, which is good and bad.

There's too much down time making movies. That leads to boredom. And that leads to trouble.

Making movies is really hard. It's the hardest thing I've ever done.

The most difficult part of making movies is to keep making them. Maybe, you could make the biggest hit in the world, but then the big problem is what to do next and how to maintain devoted to a certain instinct that I have about films.
