Actors usually feel skeptical about double hero films because one character might overshadow the other, but the late scriptwriter K. Subash has penned 'Karuppu Raja Vella Raja' in such a way that Vishal and I have equal scope in the film.
Quentin Tarantino is a genius. I want to do every single film with him.
I have the most respect for Rick. You're always going to see a Shameik Moore and Rick Famuyiwa film.
I have very strong relationships with my actors when I'm shooting. When you love an actor's work, you always feel you have to go further, and you make several films together. One film just gives you time to get acquainted.
Working with Brando was fun. It was like a tennis match. We played unbelievably well together.
Tarantino and Jackson is like Scorsese and DeNiro, and their silent communication.
When I say that it's taken us [with Luca Guadagnino ] 11 years to make this film, what I mean is that it was 11 years ago that we started to talk about a kind of cinema that we wanted to make together.
A film is like a mad arranged marriage, with all these people who don't necessarily want to be with each other forced into this intimate, exhausting process.
Neither Elizabeth or I are keen to do a real-life couple on the screen. It's not very electric.
I'd really like to do a movie again with Tim Robbins and Clint Eastwood. They were really good guys.
The whole Orion zeitgeist, of treating filmmakers as partners, to me it's inseparable from the success of 'Silence of the Lambs'.
I did a number of films with Amitabh. He was a wonderful costar - totally different from others.
I'd rather go for Scorsese and De Niro. I just think he was so much better.
