When you're making a film all by yourself, that requires you to have quite a bit of a point of view in order for anything to get done.

When you work so hard on making a film, it's all worthwhile when you get to experience seeing that film with an audience who thoroughly enjoy it and react to the movie.

Because I trained in theater, I always leave a film shoot feeling like I haven't done anything, like I just sat in front of the camera and whispered, essentially.

I used to rarely go on film sets, as I felt it was very boring to see the same shot being done so many times. I felt I had nothing to do. I used to irritate the cameramen.

I always start a film thinking I know how to do it, then I learn all over again.

Film wise, I invariably look at my work and reckon I could have done it better. I'm also conscious that I'm in a profession where we get more praise than we should compared to the usefulness of what we do.

Every time I make a film, I feel it gives me the chance to learn something new.

In film, I find it very useful always to do some preparation before you start rehearsals or start shooting, because there's so much that's against you on a film set.

When you come to do the film, it is not the time to wonder why you do it. It's just how to do it.

Sometimes I have a great day of filming and sometimes the theater strikes me better. It just depends.
