To go out with the setting sun on an empty beach is to truly embrace your solitude.
You don't have to be a wreck. You don't have to be sick. One's aim in life should be to die in good health. Just like a candle that burns out.
It's like climbing a staircase. I'm on the top of the staircase, I look behind me and I see the steps. That's where I was.
I work more now because at this time of my life I am not disturbed from my aim by outside pressures such as family, passionate relationships, dealing with 'who am I?' - those complications when one is searching for one's self.
Although for some people cinema means something superficial and glamorous, it is something else. I think it is the mirror of the world.
