Quote

I think that in the American film industry - or even in the European cinema - movies are made not to disturb any kind of class or any kind of minority.

My characters are never heroic. They are mostly lost and trying to find the right door to open and they end up opening the wrong doors.

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.

Some girls tell me I'm a sex maniac, or people I don't know think that I'm a fascist, but I don't feel like one. I really think I'm not Communist either, because I don't belong to any political group.

In most cases, I don't know how much, I cannot say if it's ninety nine percent or eighty percent, but the problem with incestuous relationships is that they often come from frustration. And from need of power.

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.

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

Survival is a genetic law.

You can put whatever you want inside evil and good in morality.

The good thing about forbidding the death penalty is that society won't be able to kill people who are not guilty, but at the same time there are some people that are just such a mental mess that, you know, they will never get out of their obsessions and they can keep them forever.

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.

I prefer periods of peace and love.

I would have to take some kind of revenge if my girlfriend had been aggressed, my mother had been aggressed, or my kids had been aggressed. I think I would go for personal revenge.

I think it's more normal to make a movie dealing with love, sexual or not, than to make movies about bank robberies, which very rarely happen in real life. So I would say the problem is not what some people feel is normal, I would say the problem is why this whole industry is far more obsessed with filming scenes of dominance, guns, invasion.

If I had to go through a tunnel ten years without making any movies like Bunuel, I don't mind, as long as I did one good movie.
