There is no sense in making a film that no-one will go and see, just to create a perfect, but useless, work of art.

If a film is not a success, then that's just the way things are. Nothing I can do can make a difference. I have stopped worrying about it.

I never made a film which fully satisfied me.

A successful film is a good film, and a non-successful film is a bad film. It's as simple as that.

The problem in cinema is that you can never predict what will happen.

I never feel any pressure about a film. What is meant to happen will happen. I have seen failure as well as success several times.

I've never much been interested in doing films that no one gets to see.

Once you know how to make a movie, you can't not make a movie.

Contrary to what many writers imply about the process, nobody forces a writer to sell his work to the film industry.

There are so many factors that go into having a successful movie.. too many that you can't control.
