I don't want to slam the cute and fun movies out there, but it gets old.

All of the movies that last, that you return to, the movies that struck you as a kid and continue to open up to you 10 years later and 10 years after that - those are the movies I want to make. Those things are eternal.

I can only hope that my future movies will do well.

A lot of my movies have come to be thought about only years after the fact, and I'm sad about that but also happy about it in a way, as it's given them longevity.

I am so happy that every generation still tunes into most of the classic and cult films I was lucky to be a part of.

The movies that will truly be successful will feel different than the movies of the year before.

You know you've been around when they start to remake your own movies when you're still alive.

My films are completely new. I am not similar to anybody in the history of movies.

I've always been in love with the movies. They're the dreams of the 20th Century.
