future jewish lack
I think the lack of automatically feeling, 'Yes, the future is going to be like the present' - that is very much a Jewish thing.
human
I think it's extremely difficult consistently being a decent human being.
idyllic society
You don't have to go very far away from Scandinavia to realize what an idyllic society it is.
director female hesitant men movies nature slightly women
I've always been slightly hesitant about generalizing movies made by men and women being different in their nature; I think movies by each director are different. Having said that, I think that it's kind of disgraceful that there aren't more female directors.

Women, nowhere in the world, have the kind of important position in society in the amount that they ought to have.

There are certain things you cannot accept. There are certain things that human beings cannot tolerate.

I did learn a lot from 'Things We Lost in the Fire,' but I've learned different things from different films.

I don't feel that I'm strictly Danish; I don't feel that my sense of humor is strictly Danish or my human sensibility is strictly Danish.
