7. Quotes
[the approach you have to take in movies]” ..... you always have to feel like it’s
gonna be the greatest, even if it’s a ... you know... piece of crap.”
“If you’ve ever had that feeling of loneliness, of being an outsider, it
never quite leaves you. You can be happy or successful or whatever,
but that thing still stays within you.”
“All these kinds of stories, wether it be “The Wizard of Oz” or “Alice in Wonderland”, are an
internal journey. I think that’s a fairly universal concept. These characters represent things
inside the human psyche. I think that’s what every child does. You try to work out problems as
you go along. Sam thing as an adult. Some people get therapy, some people get to make
movies.”

•Dark, sad themes
•Human emotion and truth
