I don't go to movies, I don't own a television, I don't buy magazines and I try not to receive mail, so I'm not really aware of popular culture.

The films I enjoy seeing are those that reveal lives I was unaware of... in different cultures or whatever.

I'm not naive enough to pretend that on its own cinema can capture the very soul of significant social and cultural problems.

I think it's important that nobody forgets that although Hollywood commercially dominates the world cinema, in fact what comes out of the filmmaking here is only a tiny slice out of the massive amount of operation that goes on around the world.

It's only in relatively recent years that Hollywood became the playground of multinational corporations which regard movies and TV shows as a minor irritant to their overall activity.

Movies are something people see all over the world because there is a certain need for it.

Cinema is a worldwide phenomenon.

I know what I miss as a cinemagoer is that balance of films that actually scare me; they're so few and far between.

Movies are an art form that is very available to the masses.

Movies are a big part of our Indian culture.
