Levity, you need levity to feel anything. You need to laugh before you cry. I think films that take themselves too seriously without any levity are missing an important ingredient to the potential emotional impact of their stories.
You can have levity in the film because real people look for levity in their lives.

I belong to no party whatever. My private life is a private life. I try to avoid photography and publicity.
My talent is that I just try and try and try and try again and little by little it comes to something.
However modest one may be in one's demand for intellectual cleanliness, one cannot help feeling, when coming into contact with the New Testament, a kind of inexpressible discomfiture: for the unchecked impudence with which the least qualified want to raise their voice on the greatest problems, and even claim to be judges of such things, surpasses all measure. The shameless levity with which the most intractable problems (life, world, God, purpose of life) are spoken of, as if they were not problems at all but simply things that these little bigots knew!
I take stuff from real life and try to make a character out of it. And I try to live the world of the characters a little bit.
