All art is autobiographical. The pearl is the oyster's autobiography.
An autobiography is not about pictures; it's about the stories; it's about honesty and as much truth as you can tell without coming too close to other people's privacy.
I don't think anyone should write their autobiography until after they're dead.
I won't ever direct a film. And I certainly won't write an autobiography. Only self-obsessed people want to write or talk about themselves!
I believe there's only one autobiography you can do.
