Alejandro G. Iñárritu's quotes

  • Directing non-actors is difficult. Directing actors in a foreign language is even more difficult. Directing non-actors in a language that you yourself don't understand is the craziest thing you can possibly think of. But I would do it again in a minute.
  • My cinema is an extension of myself. A sort of life-testimony of my vital experience, with my few virtues and my numerous limitations.
  • Biutiful is not about death, It's about life. It's a hymn to life.
  • I have tried to explore different realities in different social classes... At the bottom line , we are human beings, and it doesn't matter where you are or which god you believe in or which country you live in.
  • [on The Revenant (2015) and budgets] I come from a third-world country, and every [other] film of mine has been on budget. [2015]
  • My duty [as a filmmaker] is to make probable the improbable. If I tell you how I did it, I will ruin your experience.
  • Your childhood is your nation.
