“Of course, there's always one theater that shows some kind of European film. Now, fortunately, you have DVDs, so it's possible to get anything you want within a few hours. In those days, it was virtually impossible to get Italian films, or German films, or whatever. So I grew up with very standard, mainstream films.” WantKindShowsFilmCoursesHoursImpossibleGrewGrew UpStandardsTheaterItalianMainstreamDvds Author:Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu

“I think movies in general should have more respect for the audience than they do. Too many films are afraid to confuse people, so all the information is given to them right away, and there's nothing left for the film to do. It ruins many stories, because everything becomes obvious and predictable. I want my films to engage people more and make them more actively involved in the story.” PeopleThinkingWantShouldStoriesFilmLeftGivenAudienceInformationInvolvedShould HaveObviousRuinsPredictableMovies In General Author:Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
“As a sensitive filmmaker, I think you have to really be careful in how you explore it. Not that you can't tell any story you want - I'm not calling for censorship or anything.
