I think that cinema and the arts are central in our lives because we grow up and learn about the world through our exposure to stories.

The time of getting fame for your name on its own is over. Artwork that is only about wanting to be famous will never make you famous. Any fame is a by-product of making something that means something. You don't go to a restaurant and order a meal because you want to have a sh*t.
