If you make a film too American, it won't travel. It will have no life outside of its own country.

I'd love to work in America, some of my favourite films come from America.

If you love movies, then you love America.

I'm less comfortable making American movies because I don't know them so well.

When I say that I am going to do an American film, I didn't want to suddenly go off into a completely different world that which bears no relation to the style of filmmaking that I'm used to.

I've done quite a few big American films.

I don't really consider myself an American filmmaker like, say, Ron Howard might be considered an American filmmaker. If I'm doing something and it seems to me to be reminiscent of an Italian giallo, I'm gonna to do it like an Italian giallo.

I'd love to do a cop film in America. That's a genre I absolutely adore.

Where I come from, it was a heresy to say you wanted to be in movies, leave alone American movies.

Every time I make American film I just trust American directors and American writers.
