“I like going off and making films in private, where the hassles of everyday life…” — Kelly Reichardt

There's no such thing as making a film without stress.

One thing you learn over and over again is to trust your own instincts.

People make art for reasons other than money. People make art because they're compelled to, it's how they deal with the world or how they translate things to the world. For some people it's like food. You need to sit down at the table every day and work or go to your studio every day and for other things to have some kind of balance to them.

I can laugh at anything.
