Quote

If I weren't a director, I would want to be a film composer.

I actually grew up wanting to be a filmmaker. I wanted to make movies, and music was a detour, almost.

I thought I was going to be a filmmaker but at the same time I was an intellectual and I felt that I could make a contribution to some field, as yet, not invented.

When I was young, my idea was to become a filmmaker.

I'd love to play a musician in a film.

I had become a film director because I thought I could express something in an artful way.

I think of myself as a film composer.

When I was 20 years old, I had no plans to ever be a filmmaker.

I was always a filmmaker before I was anything else. If I was always anything, I was a storyteller, and it never really made much of a difference to me what medium I worked in.
