I Don't Think Good Films Have Messages.

I Think Striking The Right Tone For Your Story Is, If You Like, The Alchemical Work Of Writing.

I Love Films Where You Go Into The Cinema And Loosen The Edges Of Yourself And You Hopefully Enter Into The World Of The Film. You're Watching Something Unfold Before You. I Prefer The Idea Of Wonder Or Intense Wonder Over Shock Or Something.

It's Dangerous To Think Too Much About How A Film Will Be Received. Filmmaking Is Not A Popularity Contest. Some Would Disagree.

The Point Is The 'me' That You See Before You Is Not The 'me' In My Private Little Space, Shape-shifting Into The Writing Role, Nor Is It The 'me' That Works With The Actors. Here, At The End Of The Film Doing Interviews, I Feel Like I'm In Disguise.

I Think It's Restrictive To Typecast Myself As A Novelist Because I Enjoy Other Forms Of Expression. I Love Literature And I Love Cinema.
