“I mean, the idea of losing a parent is really inconceivable. I think there's just an undertone of dread about the subject, so people don't talk about it and don't prepare for it.”

“It is always good to explore the stuff you don't agree with, to try and understand a different lifestyle or foreign worldview. I like to be challenged in that way, and always end up learning something I didn't know.”

“You can watch someone on-stage cry and cry - but in the audience you feel nothing. It's easy to become indulgent. For me, what's important is the story first.”

“I've been on a lot of film sets, and I've always promised myself I wouldn't create a set where people dread coming to work.”

“I find I have to touch what I am working on every day, or a deep-seated dread kicks in that is very hard to overcome.”

“No one should suffer what I suffered. I still dread those scenes when man killed man. I lost my parents, most of my family, by running away.”
