I have two different categories of favorite films. One is the emotional favorites, which means these are generally films that I saw when I was a kid; anything you see in your formative years is more powerful, because it really stays with you forever. The second category is films that I saw while I was learning the craft of motion pictures.

My films express me, my sense of rhythm, my sense of impact, my sense of kinetic energy. I like films to move, but I like also clear storytelling and characters, and most of all, I like authentic emotion.

I have a preference for film just because of the familiarity. It's what I know, and I sort of have nostalgia for it.

I love films, I love the way they make me feel.

What I remember myself from films, and what I love about films, is specific scenes and characters.

I tend to favour films that have multiple plot and story lines, multiple characters and ensemble pieces.

I like movies that instill passion in the viewer. I like movies that can teach us about who we are as people.

I want to do films I can relate to emotionally.

I don't like films giving me answers. I like films that are provoking me, that are making me feel not only being in an easy place.

I like doing movies that relate to people's experience.
