I offer originality: you don't know what my films are like until you go to them. I think that's the reason I've been getting all this attention. ↗

I think I take what you might call a B-movie story, deal with B-movie subjects, and I treat it as if it's an A-movie in terms of my approach, my crew, my actors, my ethics and so on. I guess that's my trademark or one of them, anyway! ↗

I've lost all my money on these films. They are not commercial. But I'm glad to lose it this way. To have for a souvenir of my life pictures like Umberto D. and The Bicycle Thief. ↗

The problems seem so easy out there on the stump. Deficits shrink with a rhetorical flourish. ↗

A general presumption that Icings will govern well, is not a sufficient security to the People... those who subjected themselves to the will of a man were governed by a beast. ↗
