But I don't have such a strong desire to need to get away from filmmaking.

Then I became interested in drama, and almost by accident, I drifted into film.

I'm a huge fan of world cinema, because each country uses cinema in a very individual way.

I love Hindi films.

The whole period has taught me that I enjoy being part of an ensemble rather than just a front man. Don't get me wrong - I enjoy that too, but I get more enjoyment out of really listening to everyone.

A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs.
