I respect BMW for not interfering in these projects. They're just trying to support short films with their brand, which I think is great.

More quotes by Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Life and death are illusions. We are in a constant state of transformation.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Mexico City is very different now than when I grew up, but I was in the streets all the time - though I was born to a middle-class neighborhood where there weren't a lot of gangs and things. I was always comfortable.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I just wanted to show the migrants as complex humans with flaws and weakness, with good and bad things, and show that they're parents and family men. I wanted to show them with everything, as they are.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I think the arts should get big support, but my country has a lot of needs more important than film. Medication, education, food... The poverty is overwhelming. There are simply more important things to be attended to.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
The way America sees Mexico, if they have any sense of it, is like Taco Bell. Our countries are neighbors, and the only hard food to get in America is true Mexican. It's impossible to find, even in L.A. Why is that?
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I think every beautiful tale in the world hides the truth and reveals it little by little.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Really, I'm a neurotic perfectionist. Every single word in the script is the one that I want.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I like to make films, but the only reason I do is because I'm a very bad musician.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I always think politicians and even my dentist have more egos than actors.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
The actors make the film. They're the ones that take this theoretical movie that's in your head and make it real. The success of a film is entirely on their shoulders. I admire them, because acting is such a difficult thing to do, and I personally can't understand it.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I didn't have a normal academic career. I never studied cinema. I learned from life.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
There's nothing better than being in a film that translates to audiences and makes people think and feel good and walk away with great revelations in their own life of some kind. But when the process and the experience and the fun of that matches, it's a good feeling.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I never deny a true experience in one shot.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
All people know that they will die, but they don't actually believe it.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I've listened to music all my life. I've always felt that music tells more stories sometimes than films, with more possibilities. Every time you listen to them, songs bring different images and moods - depending on where you are in your life, you can listen to a song and it means something different.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I personally can't handle frivolous violence. I overreact to it.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I was aware of the possible biases you could get as a commercial director, like being too concerned about the technical aspects of the form rather than anything of substance. If you keep working in commercials, you can get trapped in a very superficial way of thinking. I always used commercials as an exercise for filmmaking, like going to the gym.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I hate superficial violence. It's shallow and stupid, and the impact on the audience is really bad.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
When you get to the holidays, if you think that the holidays will be forever, you just take it for granted. But, if you know that you have just three days at the beach, you will be so happy to be there, every day.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
It's more enjoyable for me to know that life is finite. Knowing that, I would like to go to a party.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
