Anime is intended to have ambiguous features. That's part of the art form.

Art is the ability to convey that we are not alone. When I sit down next to you in a movie theater, we get to share each other's point of view. We become part of a collective soul. That's the magic in the movies.

If ever I was feeling down I would go and write something. It's a form of escape.

Movie making is not like other art forms, like painting, or writing a novel, because that can be digested or interpreted... It takes two years to make each one of these, and it's always judged on money.

Film is an art form. Dissecting and understanding it is a part of our own interest in humanity.

Emotions are the basics of any art form!
