You cannot and you should not look at movies in general, because there are two types of movies. One is the type which looks at the audience as children, and entertains them with fairy tales; meanwhile it only cares about the box office and how to make money of them. And there is the other type which looks at the audience as adults, beautiful, educated, intelligent and sensible. The question is which type has a more democratic and humanistic behavior. I see the audience as an adult, smart, beautiful and sensible. I make for them movies like I do because I think they deserve them.
