Talking to other people who make low-budget movies, everyone kind of has the same struggle.

As long as you keep your budgets small, there's a way of making films.

I tend to make low-budget movies but, yeah, I make more money than I ever thought I would make.

I love films that are made with almost no budget.

Look, I've done some low-budget movies and I've done some big-budget movies, and the big-budget movies were always kind of disorganized.

When you do a low budget movie, you get a little over-ambitious.

My feeling is, I do a lot of low-budget films. I don't do low-budget acting. I have no interest in just goofballing my way through, thinking, 'Ah, no one's ever going to see this anyway.'

My advice to young film-makers is this: don't follow trends, start them!

The whole reason one wants to do lower budget films is because the lower the budget, the bigger the ideas, the bigger the themes, the more interesting the art.

When I was a kid, I wasn't looking at the small-budget films myself. I was looking at 'James Bond' and all the major films, so I still have that energy. I still love those films.
