People see truth in my films. That's what they react to, and that's what they relate to.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think that truth is stranger than fiction, and it's nice to know the people you're making a movie about.
In film and television we are oftentimes so pampered that the truths are withheld.
Truth is quite constricting, in a way. You endlessly see at the start of a film 'This is a true story'.
I want to see movies I can walk away from and say, 'Wait, what happened there? Hold up, what did I just see? What?' and then it connects to something that you personally, unequivocally know to be truth.
People always seem to see echoes of their own lives in my films.
I'd like to believe that the people that have supported me in my work or identified with me in films, the people that feel they know me, they do and they don't have misconceptions - they understand. I believe that.
When people approach me about my films it is usually to tell me how much they hate them.
I have personal beliefs and they are sometimes reflected in the movies I make, but I also reflect other points of view.
We all do films believing in them completely, but sometimes, the audiences like what we like, and other times, they don't.
I'm one of those people, when I see a film, I believe it to be true. You know, sort of the authenticity of the camera and seeing things on a screen.
