I think movies are too long.

I love doing short films because they're much more intimate and there's far less waiting around than on the bigger films.

I guess short films have a bright future... The advantage is budget.

But short films are not inferior, just different. I think the short gives a freedom to film-makers. What's appealing is that you don't have as much responsibility for storytelling and plot. They can be more like a portrait, or a poem.

I don't like extremely long movies. I tend to get a bit impatient. There are definitely exceptions, like 'Lawrence of Arabia,' but for the most part, I feel that movies should usually be shorter and not longer.

You always want your films to go as far as they can.

I actually think that short stories transfer to film much better than novels do.

Most movies aren't any good.

I think most documentaries are too long.
