I think the audience know which films are aimed at their pocket, and which films are aimed at their soul. There are a lot of films out there made by people who are genuinely trying to make a change.

To me the recognition of the audience is part of the filmmaking process. When you make a movie, it's for them.

You just have to ensure that you make good films because audiences today have become picky and smart, and rightfully so.

I care about the connection with the audience. Film is such a powerful medium. Movies can change the way people think.

I've found that if you just try to make the film you want, you'll find the right audience. If you try to please everyone, you're going to make really boring films.

I think ultimately audience members like to see someone controlling the quality of a film. A lot of films you see are made by committees and studios and producers.

The motivation for making movies is that people actually see them.

I think it's important that we all try to give something to this medium, instead of just thinking about what is the most efficient way of telling a story or making an audience stay in a cinema.

My father's films are often very slow for the modern audiences, which are used to a lot of editing. It's the audience that watches the film instead of the director dictating the reaction he wants from you.
