I really love sort of classical cinema where people were telling stories with very little dialogue, and people were using the camera in a really interesting way.
I just like movies that somehow expose the world in a way that's different than you imagine it.
I think filmmakers want their movies to be seen.
I don't think BitCoin has ever been anything but a legitimate enterprise. Currency is currency, it's used for good and ill.
You know, that's the reality, but I always shoot movies for the screen, because that's just the experience that I want to get out of it.
They're innocent movies, and they're fun movies and there were no pretensions about 'em.
The thing is there have been American movies that are similar to Solaris, like Alien had a lot of things that are similar, although it's also got the horror element.
I have been interested in global web-based communities and emerging technologies since the mid 80's. There is a revolution occurring in global culture nowadays, that will change everything. and it's only just beginning.
It's hard for a hit to be bad for your career.
I'm not trying to be some kind of underground renegade.
I take a lot from everywhere. I take from music, architecture, novels, and plays. Anywhere that hits you.
The film, even when we were making it in that budget range, which was really a coup - we got it made because we pitched it to the studio head, Joe Roth.
I'm really influenced by so many different things.
I'm one of the few people who really like Eyes Wide Shut.
