The cynical part of the answer is that I expect to see a good deal more space opera, set far enough in the future as to be disconnected from contemporary issues.

Watching 'Interstellar' is really like watching two movies slowly collide with each other.

'Interstellar' may never equal the blast of scientific speculation and cinematic revelation that was Stanley Kubrick's '2001: A Space Odyssey,' but its un-Earthly vistas are spectral and spectacular.

Opera is a beautiful and important diversion for me.

When you're doing a film called 'Interstellar,' at some point - the idea was to be grounded in the science as much as possible - but with a name like 'Interstellar,' you had better go somewhere big and bold.

Put simply, 'Interstellar' has a strong undercurrent of cheesiness.

I'd hate this to get out but I really like opera.

No operatic star has yet died soon enough for me.

I've never been to the opera; I've only seen opera on DVD.

I like the idea of people coming to opera for the first time and finding it an enjoyable experience. I don't like the fact that opera is seen as elitist and all black ties and that stuff.
