We're living in a new Beat time, in my view. And it's very difficult for us to hang on.
Tilda Swinton
Image
What very often happens when people make films about rich people, the camera is quite mesmerised by the opulence and quite theatrical in fact.
Tilda Swinton
Image
The whole thing of working in collaboration with filmmakers is the thing that I love the most, and possibly the thing I do the best.
Tilda Swinton
Image
This self-obsession is a waste of living. It could be spent on surviving things, appreciating nature, nurturing kindness and friendship, and dancing.
Tilda Swinton
Image
Archetypes are always [in my film-making]. It's sometimes interesting to just flip them a little bit and see the underside.
Tilda Swinton
Image
Eleven years is a great length of time to prepare a movie, it would be wonderful to have 11 years of funded preparation.

Image
I never quite understand the way society decides who is beautiful and who is not. But an open face and a capacity for kindness always feel like reliable signifiers to me.

Image
Maybe it was my revenge on people who had been unkind to me as a child. But it was very easy and a thrill to freeze up children.

[My work] just develops and develops, and I'm very nicely served by the universe: just as I'm ready to take the conversation further with myself, some other individual pops up, like David McKenzie did, with this idea of making this film [Teknolust], and provides exactly the leap to the next adventure.

When I say that it's taken us [with Luca Guadagnino ] 11 years to make this film, what I mean is that it was 11 years ago that we started to talk about a kind of cinema that we wanted to make together.

I think that a real film fan experience is about a kind of omnivorous experience.
Tilda Swinton
Image
I think there's a dishonorable tradition in Hollywood to give the idea, particularly to children, that evil characters are dark.

Image
One of the wonderful things that I've always loved as an art student, what I always loved about comics, was that they are interpreted differently by different graphic artists all the time, so now film is doing that thanks to Marvel Studios.
Tilda Swinton
Image
I was not, and am not, officially a producer of that film [I am love] but the work of what a producer does I learned at that stage and to a certain extent I've been a producer ever since.
Tilda Swinton
Image
How do we identify ourselves, and how do we settle into other people's expectations for our identity?
Tilda Swinton
Image
I would say, and this sounds like a rather immodest thing to say, but the truth is it's probably the most amazing thing of all, it's pretty much exactly what I thought we were going to make, what I hoped we'd make.

I've only ever gone into studio films with people I really like.

Image
I mean, even in terms of the Marvel universe, this [Ancient One character] is going on a side street into a major piazza that Marvel hasn't even been to before, because it's all about creation and not so much about destruction and forestalling destruction, it's about your mind.
Tilda Swinton
Image
I'm just really old [in Doctor Strange]. Just really, really old. There is I suppose a sort of theme tune which I'm really interested in.
Tilda Swinton
Image
I'm really interested in the idea of long, long life and transformation and immortality.
