Children are the most wonderful audiences. What's struck me most is that that they watch it so silently, until the end when they shriek and shout and clap. ↗

Children don't need much advice but they really do need to be listened to and not just with half an ear. ↗

During an election, it's like they're doing my job: they're going around banging the drum for their party and selling their movie. You know, it's the same thing. ↗

Film is so much to do with perfection and how differently you can feel about someone at the beginning of the film and the end of the film. ↗

I hate the way market forces try to separate us out in to the appropriate demographic - basically in order to sell us things. We need to find stories that we can enjoy together, not separately. ↗

I have to write for everyone. What really fascinates me is how you make films or make stories that can genuinely be shared by different groups. ↗
