I have not always had the opportunity to discuss something with the management, and they are not always kept me up to date - if for some reason the director did not have to worry about the issue of the budget. Therefore, in the beginning, I was always aware of everything in the RSA. I liked the business, I realized that this too creative, just another ».

Ridley Scott: «Storytelling - is communication. I know that this sounds like a simplification. This speaker! I remember one of the best television shows I've ever seen. I watched a program on the BBC with Orson Welles and Peter O'Toole. They sat and talked half the night. The program lasted two hours instead of the hours. And I sat and stared at it as a clash between two creative forces on a conversation between two people who really know all about his art and profession. And then I realized that in fact you do not need to get in the frame certainly fled, jumping and exploding cars. This information is all around. In fact, you need to make it all developed, was in the dynamics, I think so.

And I knew in my life, you need to trust your instincts. In the creative process of the intuition becomes a general all - need to learn to listen to her and follow her. You get a lot more experience and feelings when you listen to yourself, your body, than those who do not. They often blame the external circumstances, and rarely in the interior. Listen, this is Buddhism, yes? »
