coming films iran stuff taiwan
I find the stuff that is exciting to me are the films coming out of Taiwan and Iran and France. So I have the feeling I'm not making the films that American distributors want to make.
honesty design feelings
I try to keep feeling what's going on and try to use the camera, the actors and the design to enhance those feelings. There's something really emotionally direct and honest about how I put the material with the images. You hope that the strength of mise-en-scene comes from an honesty towards the material. You also hire really well.
queer
My films might have been queer - because I was - but they were not gay.
time
You can be aware of the passing of time without being nostalgic.
