Quote:
"Certain Canadian critics have not yet discovered that the profound interaction of foreground and background creates the film's visual totality. D.W. Griffith, Bresson and Vigo have been sources of inspiration for my films. And I think that this runs contrary to the values of the current Hollywood and Canadian film industries."
