I've been lucky over the past few years. Things have just happened for me.
My father was 65 when I was born so we didn't have much time together.
Most of my choices come about through some kind of intuition or instinct, and if I need to, I'll post-rationalize them, intellectually, afterwards. But generally, they come about just by feeling.
Pride' is my first film with a happy ending. Before, I naively thought they were a cop-out, but now I've come to believe that happy endings and wish fulfilment are an incredibly important part of our cultural life.
I think maybe I might tackle something that doesn't reach down to a very, very young audience, like more of a kind of teenager and upwards.
I think Pan is a superhero movie; I mean, the kid flies in the end.
Modern, not bottom-dwelling literature like a carp.
An artist needs to live to create, and to live means to suffer.
I was never a kind of superhero fan much growing up, I'm not a kind of comic book kid.
