Fernando Meirelles's quotes
- I've always been very independent, I've always produced my own things; I don't know how to share. A big studio invests a lot of money, and they want control. I'm not prepared for that yet.
- I'm going to do some big film at some point but not now. My ideal career would be to do what Pedro Almodovar does (in Spain). I'd like to make Brazilian films for international audiences that are not big-budget. This would be the best.
- This is the part that I like most, in the process, is to edit and try to find the story. Sometimes you think you have a film, and then you change something and it becomes different. It's a wonderful job. Because it surprises you.
- I never stop working on a film. I can't help myself.
- If you do a film with a high budget, people want to control it. Marketing people tell you what to do, and where to cut, so they can get their money back. I am more interested in doing smaller films that I can control.
- It's much easier to shoot in English, [as it provides, at least, for] a decent budget so I can do what I have in mind.
- An architect is somebody who really doesn't know how to build a building. [They need engineers, just as directors rely on writers and actors. What both architects and directors do bring is] a vision.
