I've always been completely autocratic. I've never learned to be diplomatic or democratic.

I was never the diplomatic diplomat.

I've learned never to try and force words to come.

I'm a pluralist. I've always argued that as many different films as possible should be made.

My interest in architecture has always been sculptural. Most of my photography is of architecture.

I'm always afraid someone's going to tap me on the shoulder one day and say, 'Back to North London.'
