I'm happy to do interviews from time to time, but I don't find them that necessary - and that hasn't seemed to have affected people's understanding of our work.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I do interviews because it's a chance to be myself. I sometimes wonder what I could have to say that would be of any interest. I don't have any great wisdom.
Interviews are usually a follow-up, like a press junket or a publicity junket, or something like that, and I'm not doing any of that right now. I don't have any axes to grind.
I love doing interviews that are about work that I do, films that I make. I am not very interested in the rest. I think I have always been quite reserved and a bit frightened of that whole thing.
So interviews are a valuable tool, but under certain circumstances they'd be more valuable than others.
For me, the main principle for broadcasters has to be that if people stand to benefit from an interview, they should be prepared to face some downside as well.
Ah, I don't do interviews, really.
I don't do interviews.
I'm loath to do interviews. What comes out is generally not what I meant or thought I was saying or thought they were asking.
I never liked the idea of giving interviews. One says many things, but when they are published, they become shortened, condensed. The ideas lose their meaning.
I don't think of myself as giving interviews. I just have conversations. That gets me in trouble.
