kind making-money film
I also don't like films that are made just to make money, no this kind of film I don't like.
thinking style audience
I'm Dario Argento, and my style is something recognizable I think by the audience.
interesting special opera
'Macbeth' is one of the best operas ever, and doing it was a great experience. I added some things to the opera based from my experience on the movie - such as some of the special effects and bits of film - to make it new and interesting. It was a very good work and a very good experience.
beautiful dark men
Americans are very enthusiastic. We have a new generation of moviegoers who love great horror films. I am a very imaginative man, and for me, it's easy to speak with my dark side. I have very beautiful, interesting nightmares.
daughter thinking supportive
My daughter, Asia, has been in many of my movies. I love working with her. In the beginning, I was not supportive of her being an actress, but now I think she is fantastic.
children men film-critics
I first came to cinema as a passionate filmgoer, when I was a child. Then, when I was a very young man, I became a film critic precisely because of my knowledge of cinema. I did better than others because of this. Then I moved on to screenwriting. I wrote a film with Sergio Leone, 'Once Upon a Time in the West.' And then I moved to directing.
stories want audience
This is my life - I want to tell stories. There is something huge inside me that pushes me to tell stories, and tell stories for an audience and everybody.
want audience
I want to do what I want when I want to do it not be dictated to by audiences.
movie watches ifs
If you don't like my movies, don't watch them.
mean soul messages
I like films to have something inside, I don't mean a message, I mean something from the soul.
years long style
I wanted to get back to my style of 20 years ago after a long period of exploring horror and fantasy themes.
friday able cameras
I used a Luma crane, a wounderful device; it makes the camera able to go anywhere. It was also used on Friday the 13th Part 3.
moving thinking important
I think the camera was always my obsession, the camera movements. Because for me it's the most important thing in the move, the camera, because without the camera, film is just a stage or television - nothing.
ukulele film love-films
When I was five. That's when I started to love film.
