The biggest battle for a lot of people who come out of the theater, which is where I was trained, is that they can never forget that a camera is pointed at them.

When you're filming, it's very different from what you see on screen.

You have to surrender less when you see a film than when you go and see something live.

War is chaotic and when you start having a larger scale film and you have a lot of safety protocols and choreography, I would imagine it becomes more difficult.

I've been in enough movies to know that when you're on the set and you start shooting, you're looking at playback and you get a sense of what it's going to be like.

I began to realise that film sees the world differently than the human eye, and that sometimes those differences can make a photograph more powerful than what you actually observed.

On film you put all your energies into a single glance.

When I go to the movies, I like to see something different.

War is hell. Hollywood fantasizes about it and makes it look good... war sucks.

Sometimes movies gloss over things, and it was important to me that this was realistic.
