Quote

I wanted to do comic books... as a comic book artist, as an illustrator. But I'm not very good so I thought I should do something else! So I went to a film school when I was seventeen and came out when I was nineteen.

I'm sure if you were a Bosnian during the war, you would wish to kill Serbs. Just because it is the opposite of you and because they're aggressors. And also, it happens to me when I get attacked.

Erotic movies - they don't even make it anymore. Even the erotic magazines don't really look like the ones you could find in the '70s. You have much more extreme iconography of what is sexy. It's very cold. There's nothing that links to real life.

It's not that I dislike the police, but I would never go to the police for anything. It's just that I prefer not..., not calling them.

From a simple, mammal perspective, you think you're going to make friends through the movie. You think, Oh, this kind of humor that I play with will bring people that have a similar kind of humor. I'll make new friends, or something. You don't even think in terms of audience or of money.

Sometimes you have the chance to do one movie, make it the best you can, put everything in it.

The hateful reviews are very funny. And sometimes you can enjoy a hateful review much more than a good review.

You wake up because you killed someone and you're afraid of going to jail. And the moment you wake up you feel safe and it's over and you can meet that person in the street and you're not going to jail. The good thing about dreams is that they erase some kind of desire, because after your dreams you feel you've done it, and you're relieved.
