Movies don't have borders.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Cinema is universal, beyond flags and borders and passports.
Movies can tell us about our place, or lack of place, in our culture.
Someone once told me that movies are a universal passport. And it's true, wherever you go.
Films should have the capacity to bring you into another world.
In Europe, there are many filmmakers working in the same territory: immigration, and the things that are most disruptive to European life today. That's not a judgment. I think it's good that cinema looks at such things.
Movies are becoming more global, which is making them less intimate. If you make a movie for the world, you don't make it for any country.
You can make films in a lot of countries, but they don't have very wide releases.
Sometimes you film in your hometown, sometimes you go halfway across the world.
If you make a film too American, it won't travel. It will have no life outside of its own country.
'Border' was the first movie that I watched on the big screen. It always takes me back to my childhood.
