We're all of us guinea pigs in the laboratory of God. Humanity is just a work in progress.
But I'm pretty good with collaborative thinking. I work well with other people.
Although filmmaking is collaborative and involves trust ultimately it is the director who holds the whole picture together in their head.
Well first of all making films is a collaborative process. You need people. You need people you trust and love and who are your friends. People you can work with.

But because we live in an age of science we have a preoccupation with corroborating our myths.
