If I could live in a cabaret, I would. If I could live in 'Moulin Rouge,' I would.

I thought 'Moulin Rouge' was inspirational, and 'Jesus Christ Superstar' I loved.

Deep down, I think I would be utterly miserable in Hollywood.

I realized I probably wouldn't make another film that cuts through commercial and creative things like 'Godfather' or 'Apocalypse.'

If you make a feelgood film which is complete candyfloss, where everybody is good and everything is beautiful and hunky dory, it won't appeal to the audience.

Music is life itself. What would this world be without good music? No matter what kind it is.

I'd love to see us get to a point where you can make a movie and not worry about the limits of the violence. Then I think they'd get so violent that people would get bored of it.

Who wouldn't want to be in 'Star Wars?' It'd be great.

I think there is no world without theatre.

I'd love to do like a modern day 'Shining' and play the Jack Nicholson role.
