Career
"and I ended up with a three-point formula. The first was: after entering the cinema, I wanted the audience to forget what problems he has at home. This is what people want when they go to a cinema: to be immersed in another world. So I had to make the audience believe that this world exists; these characters exist. The second was: the story has to be unpredictable. We naturally want to assume what will happen next. If I could do that, I would get the audience's respect, and keep them hooked to the film. The third was I wanted to create some experiences that can only be enjoyed on the big screen, and not on a phone or computer display."
