Really fantastic film, 'Munich'. So yeah, if I would say, what's the most underappreciated film, I think 'Munich' would be the one.

The greatest directors are the greatest users. They use people's talents to tell the story that they want to tell.

It's great to be recognized for work, and the work is great, but once you have the awards, it becomes less important. It just gives you the ability to do better work, in my opinion.

Very few people make exterior movies anymore. It's always action films driven by action and quick editing.

There are films that are difficult. There are films that would actually affect your personal life because of the length of the production, how long [you're away] from the family.

If you take away 'Schindler's List' and 'Saving Private Ryan', I like 'Minority Report' a lot.

I had very little involvement with 'TinTin'. Very little involvement. So I can't really elaborate on that either.

["War Horse"] does have action as well, but we allow the audience to appreciate the environment where these characters are from because the lens shapes the people, as we know.

It would be horrible to be micro-managed! I don't think directors can really micro-manage people. It's just impossible.

[I] love 'Munich', man. That's a very underappreciated film.

I just directed another picture called 'American Dream' with Nick Stahl. Just finished shooting principal photography right before I started ['Lincoln'].

Plot comes from the mind but the characters come from the heart!

You scholars, you're in communication with the devil.

I've stepped more into my business and really... taken control for how I want that to be.

Settle for nothing less than the object of your desire.

The Atomic Age is here to stay - but are we?

The very first song I wrote was about a boy that I was obsessed with.

A few words about the question of whether photography is art or not: I never understood the question.

The true content of a photograph is invisible, for it derives from a play, not with form, but with time.

Everything you cherish Throws you over in the end Thorns will grab your ankles From the gardens that you tend.

Good luck, little Wanderer, good luck. How I wish you didn't need it.
