japan kyoto dresses
Japan is the most intoxicating place for me. In Kyoto, there's an inn called the Tawaraya which is quite extraordinary. The Japanese culture fascinates me: the food, the dress, the manners and the traditions. It's the travel experience that has moved me the most.
fun stuff kind
I feel like I am very drawn to the short form stuff because it's just fun to be making something, and then, a week later, it's out. I will always be drawn to that kind of thing.
one-day kingdoms directors
On 'Darjeeling,' I was on set every day and I acted as the second unit director and a producer on that film. I was there throughout the whole process. On 'Moonrise Kingdom,' I showed up for one day.
beautiful done proud
A movie that I'm involved with and have a lot of love for, which is 'On The Road,' does use a lot of handheld. It can be done beautifully. I'm proud of that. It's a very beautiful movie.
cost honest film
I would like to do more feature work. I intend to do that. To be really honest, it's an economic thing because when you make a film that doesn't make what it cost back, it's very difficult to get back in the ring.
difficult stamina difficult-things
To make personal movies that you are the author of, is quite a difficult thing. It takes a lot of stamina.
fun thinking waiting
Anything that you think is wild or fun, or can't wait to see or show your friends, go for it.
fashion flower men
I like things that are hand made - but personally for a man, I'm not interested in fashion that evolves with time. I like things to be the same. For a woman I think it's fantastic to have things that are different - it's like a flower where every season there's some new exotic bloom.
film eating natural
Film is like eating to me. It feels completely natural.
thinking people would-be
It's not just people in Hollywood: I'm sure everyone in the world thinks, 'What would be it like if I won an Oscar?
female made audience
Relationship movies are often made for a female audience.
writing flow sometimes
Sometimes in writing you have difficult periods and then other times it just flows.
writing goal knows
Dont imitate. Write what you know about, that has to be your goal.
design creative waiting
That's a hobby of mine - to do whatever I can for unusual for-hire creative projects. I am waiting for someone to really challenge me - obviously I'm often approached to do film related work, but I would be very happy to design a bar or an amusement park ride. I would love to be an imagineer!
