I don't make deals, I make pictures.

People talk about making art films - experimental films. I can make an art film every day of the week. Nothing to it. What's difficult is to combine a commercial film with art.

I don't like actors, I like women.

There is no sense in making a film that no-one will go and see, just to create a perfect, but useless, work of art.

You don't make pictures for Oscars.

The pictures I make come from every blink of my lashes.
