I never thought about becoming a director before. I considered the occupation of film director as being for the intelligentsia."" ""I don't make rules myself. I didn't study enough to be able to make them. I'm too stupid. I spend my whole life making movies, so I have to enjoy it. Even at times when we had a very tight and difficult schedule, it was always enjoyable. Of course I wonder if the film will be successful afterwards. It's wonderful if a film becomes successful as a result of the enjoyment that we had."" -20 Brilliant Filmmakers on Why They Make Movies"
