It was really hard to find another project after my first film.

Well, again working strictly to the film, where you had this lovely, lovely land of brightness and color. And everybody is smiling and happy and butterflies flitting around and it was that kind of image that, it was like a dream world, really.

The movie feels to me like a real work of lovely art.

I'd like to make really important movies, like American Beauty. I was really proud to be a part of that movie.

It is the idea that it's a movie in a movie. So I did it.

It's the first film that I made where the director was not present under the camera, and it threw me.

Films should have the capacity to bring you into another world.

Film for me became how I related to everything else.

I can't believe I actually was in my own movie.
