"In a way, I have to have a dictatorship. I can't be told that I'm wrong. That conflicts with what I was saying earlier about listening. It isn't to do with receiving criticism and responding to other views, it's who has that last decision."
Decision-Making
"The film director, in many instances, has to swallow somebody else's decision about the final form of something. It's so hard as to be intolerable."
Decision-Making

Actor

Aspiration
"You are faced with the choice: either my integrity remains intact and this is the work that ends up on the screen, or I have to leave, and I have to be known to have left."
