There are so many elements that make a good film. You need a great director who's driving it.

I've been able to make some wonderful films, but sometimes you make films with great passion - great belief - and these films slightly don't work at the box office, and they become your favorite films.

You can have an amazing director and terrible script, and the film's not going to be great. But if you have the most incredible script and an okay director, you could still get a really good film.

There's a lot of other movies I like, but I don't even pay attention to directors to tell you the truth.

Any film, or to me any creative endeavour, no matter who you're working with, is, in many cases, a wonderful experience.

I've seen many, many movies over the years, and there are only a few that suddenly inspire you so much that you want to continue to make films.

Every film that I have done has a special place in my heart.

I really, really love directing films.

I've been lucky enough to work with some great directors, and I don't want to throw that away by doing one big horrible big budget film.

You have to find something that you have to obsess over if you're making a movie about it. As a director, you have to be able to pick something that excites you enough that you can breathe it every day.
