I mean, there are certain Spielberg movies I really like, but clearly they're very different directors and I much prefer Kubrick to Spielberg.
I like Kubrick a lot, Coppola, Lynch - I guess my favorite modern director is David Lynch.
I'm kind of happy to say I make weird movies - that part of it I'm really proud of.
Considering we always wanted to make something that was very anti-establishment, the fact is, the film's been seen by a lot of people.
That's the funny thing about Fever, which has been a kind of thorn in our side, although I don't think The Sixth Sense had even come out yet when we shot the movie. My film is so not a whodunit, and it so doesn't have a big surprise ending.
You know, that's the reality, but I always shoot movies for the screen, 'cause that's just the experience that I want to get out of it.
And it really doesn't matter if you want to make mainstream movies - I think; make the movies you want to make.
Again, I don't have a high and mighty attitude about what I do, these just happen to be the kind of movies I want to make.
