I'm really interested in the idea of long, long life and transformation and immortality.
Tilda Swinton
Image
I think that a real film fan experience is about a kind of omnivorous experience.
Tilda Swinton
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.
Tilda Swinton
Image
We talked [with Scott Derrickson] about making it kind of muscular and practical. Yeah it's a fantasy but what's the difference between fantasy and reality really?
Tilda Swinton
Image
I've only ever gone into studio films with people I really like.
Tilda Swinton
Image
It's a real comfort zone for me to feel alien.
Tilda Swinton
Image
I think there's a dishonorable tradition in Hollywood to give the idea, particularly to children, that evil characters are dark.

This is the launch of the Doctor Strange film interpretation, of - in my view - a classic, which has been interpreted many times by other graphic artists and this is just our graphic interpretation of The Ancient One. I would say the whole approach is about a kind of fluidity.

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
I would say that I think the film [I am love] is absolutely about nature, it recommends human nature. You don't need to recommend change, that's inevitable, it's the only reliable thing we have.

Image
Sexuality is, of course, a great way of having a conversation between people.
Tilda Swinton
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.

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
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.

Image
The work is different in the sense that I haven't had to travel round the world raising money, or work from the genesis of the project. But the collaboration feels clear always, it's sort of my drug, I'm in it for the conversation. The conversation's the most important part of it.

Art is good for my soul precisely because it reminds me that we have souls in the first place.

Derek Jarman shared the responsibility for making the film. He didn't necessarily know what he wanted - he knew what he didn't want - but you had to keep coming up with stuff.

Most of us live our whole lives without having an adventure to call our own.
Tilda Swinton
Image
I think of great masters, like [Alfred] Hitchcock, for example, who works absolutely within this sensational realm. You feel like you can always tell what temperature a room is in a Hitchcock film because the people feel alive, they don't feel like they're just being filmed on a stage.

We must hang on to the idea that we can actually change things. That's the sort of environment that Joe finds himself in, in Young Adam.
