The films that have influenced me and the films that have motivated me and inspired me were films that resonated, films that made me think after I saw them.

Too Late
COULD ye come back to me, Douglas, Douglas,
In the old likeness that I knew,
I would be so faithful, so loving, Douglas,
Douglas, Douglas, tender and true.
Never a scornful word should grieve ye,
I'd smile on ye sweet as the angels do;--
Sweet as your smile on me shone ever,
Douglas, Douglas, tender and true.
O to call back the days that are not!
My eyes were blinded, your words were few
Do you know the truth now up in heaven,
Douglas, Douglas, tender and true?
I never was worthy of you, Douglas;
Not half worthy the like of you:
Now all men beside seem to me like shadows--
I love you, Douglas, tender and true.
Stretch out your hand to me, Douglas, Douglas
Drop forgiveness from heaven like dew;
As I lay my heart on your dead heart, Douglas,
Douglas, Douglas, tender and true.

Drop forgiveness from heaven like dew;

There are two types of films - one made by the big-time producers, the other is low budget stuff made by some producers who make films for the heck of it, they complete their films for small amounts, sell it at low costs with almost no publicity.

Woman I love thee
The women in my life keep me grounded
Their my run way lights back to the straight path when temptation gets me lifted
So I pray they enjoy paradise if my body causes my soul to miss it
The women in my life love me
They taught me right from wrong, fed, washed and cloth me
None of them ever tried to controll me
They allow me to be a boy and my own man
None of them ever judge me so I don’t judge any
The women in my life share my heart
They shield it from the ladies that try to depress me
So the ladies despise me, some regret me
Some even say they hate me just because I don’t let them control me
But I was prepared for all that so the ladies don’t stress me
The women in my life are no angels
But they have hearts that cause their body to glow
Even though their down to earth they have heaven at their feet
So the lady that wants me should follow in their footsteps because they touch heaven with their feet
The women in my life birth and raised me
So the women in my life will never be unhappy or shed tears because of me
And if ever I caused tears to form in your eyes I ask you to please forgive me
And in case I didn’t make you all feel appreciated before I hope you read this and see how much I appreciate each one of you:
Avril Boyer, Tahira Boyer, Halima Boyer & Zainab Boyer women I love thee.

There were a lot of people dreaming about making films, and they would finance maybe 6 films a year. Because they were funded by the government, the films sort-of had to deal with serious social issues - and, as a result, nobody went to see those films.

Some of these things I saw in foreign films - African films, Cuban films - long before I decided to really go on this course as an actor. I started to think about what values I saw in those films that I wanted to bring to my projects.

I've done a few studio films in the last few years where I feel like I've done good work, and then I only end up in two scenes. That's been very disappointing.

From my films, you can at least learn about Iran, you can get a sense of the history and the society. But no such films have been made about Afghanistan, so you really can't know much about it.

In the first years after 1989, films were partly financed from the state's budget as well as by public television. Still, except for a few special cases, most films are made this way.

The United States and Turkey are the only two countries that don't have some kind of subsidy for the Arts. The whole culture in society has made certain films more acceptable. I turned down so many films in the '60s and '70s.

Yes, I was hired by Universal because they needed a comedy director. They had seen Scandal and liked it. I saw an opportunity even in those comedies to begin my project of American films.

You have to nail the right tone because sometimes when you just see his films cold, you're not quite sure. It's the same in - I'm trying to think of other directors with a similar sense - David Lynch's films, Tim's films, some of Cronenberg's stuff.
