There's always difficulties and challenges in every life, I don't care how much money you make, where you live... and that's something this film speaks to.

I just can't get excited about money as a motivation in a film. It leaves me cold.

First of all, what in this world does not revolve around money? But money is a big part of film, unlike a lot of other art forms.

I plough all my money into my next film, so I never actually have any money. It's always invisible.

In troubled times the last thing you want to do is to stick your money into a film. It's such a gamble.

Film is different for me now. If the money is good and it's not totally revolting, I'll do it.

My choice of films has never been governed by money. That is perhaps why I don't have a very fancy bank account. I'd rather get respect and creative satisfaction through my work than just earn money.

I never did films for the money or because I needed to buy a house or car. I do it because I love my job.

The film is not a success until it makes money. It's only good when there's a dollar figure attached to the box office.

Money is... I'm very conscious of it because I have it. It's powerful, man. It can change you ever so slightly, ever so slowly, and all of a sudden you're addicted to a million-dollar lifestyle and you've got no choice but to make a bad movie.
