Movies about space raise those questions of what we're doing here, and that inevitably introduces a spiritual dimension.

I've always wanted to do a space movie.

Actors want to impress at the beginning, so you take advantage of that by suddenly saying, 'Right, you're here for two weeks.' What you're doing is creating a siege mentality.

I like films that have a kind of vivacity about them.

You can't tell someone they are wrong about their own life.

I love huge movies. Not sure I am the guy to make them, but you can rely on me being there watching them.
