“That's the thing that contributes most to a film is just really giving it your all. That's all I can do on a movie. I can't really make a movie good or not because that's decided by the spectator. That's not in my control. All I can do is give it everything that I have. Like that's just the love I have to give. So why bring in all these other things? Just set it up so you can give it everything that you've got each time. In those theoretical considerations about how a scene can function or be rendered or shot or executed or all these things, just think of it as, 'Oh, this is the challenge.' I want authenticity. How do we create an environment where that's more likely to happen? Because it's never going to be something that I can enforce, and the more I try to enforce it, the less likely it'll happen. So it's very tricky.
It's luck. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. There's definitely times where I think back, like I would have liked to have done that differently. But that's always going to be the feeling, no matter how well you do it, you know?”
