religious thinking faces
I am not particularly religious. But I think we do face the question of where God is, why we are created and where does life go, why we exist. That sort of thing. And it is very hard to talk about it these days, because it cannot be proven. It is hard to discuss it rationally.
distance thinking pieces
I think doing period piece is easier, because after a certain distance, everybody is equal, I think. The relative contemporary is harder. I think that's the way it is.
movie thinking actors
Thinking back to those earlier days, I felt I was weak when I wasn't making movies, and then when I was, I thought I was weak as a family member.

I like to do drama, something about life that could be disappointing.

I think each movie-making process is a very exhausting and satisfying and fulfilling experience for me.

Film study was considered disgraceful by my father.
