Takeshi Kitano quotes about
careers film repetition
My film directorial career has been nothing but repetition of one failure after another!
fake-people hate character
One thing I hate in movies is when the camera starts circling around the characters. I find that totally fake.
festivals lucky film
I don't really expect much from my life. So when I heard my films are premiering in film festival circuits I was glad of course but I thought it was lucky accident.
perseverance thinking way
I always come to conclusions very fast. Well, that is one way of thinking, and the other way would be that I lack the necessary perseverance to stick to one thing that really fits me. I don't know if it's a good thing or bad thing.
blows fighter good receiving
Sword fighting in film is not about how good the fighter is, but how good the actor receiving the blows is.
