Director Aji John has a style of filmmaking that will surely appeal to all.
For John Woo, it is quite difficult to make a movie in Hollywood in his own style. Because Hollywood is based on a producer system, it is difficult for a director to express himself using his own style of filmmaking.
As a film director I like to have the actors create their own close-ups. It's an older style of filmmaking.
My father, John Marcellus Huston, was a director renowned for his adventurous style and audacious nature.
Whenever you write script without a director, you put in things that point toward a style in which the story will be told, a subjective style.
Maybe many directors are trying to create their own style of filmmaking, or to respond to audiences that come expect a certain style from them. But I don't care about that - I don't intend to have a 'Miike' style. I just pour myself into each film, enjoy it, and then what comes out just seems to have a 'Miike' style.
Filmmaking has always involved pairs: a director coupled with a producer, a director alongside an editor... The notion of couples is not foreign to cinema.
I think that, again, filmmaking is the director's medium in the end, and the best thing a producer can do is stay out of the way and support the director one hundred percent.
Filmmaking is a creative process so there is a lot of collaboration that happens on set between an actor and director, but at the end of the day, we're there to actualize the director's vision and things happen organically.
In films, you have to follow the director's vision. Filmmaking is a director's medium. So everything happens as per the script and his vision.
In 'Windtalkers,' the director John Woo is meticulous in melding his own intimate style into the cliches of a large-scale war movie, paying homage to all the tired conventions of the genre. But it's an honor that these cliches don't deserve.
Style to me is incidental. The British are very adept at creating it for its own sake, but the best style is incidental. John Coltrane had a style but it was totally incidental to what he was.
Loveleen Tandon, the casting director of 'Brick Lane,' understood my capacity and suggested my name to director Sarah Gavron. The film has such universal appeal that given a chance I would like to remake it in Hindi.
It will appeal to girls who are confident and have a strong personal expression of style and identity in the way that they dress and what this says about themselves.
The director's very important to me, particularly when the director has a recognizable style.
You have to be careful of the pictures you make. You should ask, Will it have universal appeal, will it have an appeal at home?
Germany was a parliamentary democracy with many, many humane and decent people who kept writing in their journals - I've read these journals, these memoirs - "Surely our leaders will stop this nonsense. Surely someone will take on these thugs. Surely the pendulum will swing back." Everyone was sitting at home going, "Well, they haven't come for me. This is crazy, but surely someone's going to take care of it." We all have to take care of it.
