Life is complicated, and art has the right to be complicated, too. I don't like films that simplify.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think a smart person today realizes that you have to be part of the art films that are done just for the sake of the art.
Life is very, very complicated, and so films should be allowed to be, too.
You don't make movies to be art movies. You make movies that move you emotionally because if you're going to commit five years of your life to a movie, you need something to keep you going.
Art does imitate life, it has to come from somewhere. To put boundaries and limitations on it doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
There's always been a struggle with filmmakers between art and industry, and you have to find a balance.
The only thing approaching art in a movie is the script.
One of the reasons that art is important to me is sometimes it actually feels more coherent than life. It orders the chaos.
For me, art has to have two things to really blow me away: a strong concept and drama.
We like to think of film and music as art, but actually art is something that is not restricted.
I love films that are many things at the same time while being simple.
