“I never control a film. The film controls me.” — Jiang Wen Quote

“I never control a film. The film controls me.”

“It's not easy for a film to tell a story of the experiences of an entire society. However, from an individual's perspective, it is possible to tell one aspect of an entire society's story.”

“Many filmmakers have had that experience. They make a movie, then out of nowhere, they either pass censorship or fail.”

“It is simply economically impossible to require controls that even approach zero emissions.”

“If 'Crazywala' is about the state of politics in our country, 'Nawab Basha' is about how money controls most of our lives.”

“I don't think that anyone should be in control of a relationship. I think that if you have a woman that controls her man, he is a puppet, and he is weak.”
