Zitat des Tages von Asif Kapadia:

I want to make my own films from my own scripts based on stories I want to tell, but they take time to put together.

A lot of the time when I'm working, I'm abroad.

I worked in TV for a short time and couldn't stand the fact that we'd always be filming someone talking, just giving information.

Asif Kapadia

I made several short films with very little dialogue. I'm still not a fan of talking heads. My stories are told with images as much as possible.

We spent four days filming in a helicopter. I had never seen London from that viewpoint - you get a sense of how big it is and how easy it is to get lost. There was one day when we couldn't find Brick Lane: we spent 25 minutes looking and then realised it was directly below us.

Martin Scorsese was being given an honorary doctorate, and one of the tutors asked if there was a student film he particularly liked. He mentioned our film. There was a dinner after the final show just for the tutors, but I was smuggled in to meet Scorsese over dessert.

Asif Kapadia

I just loved films. I knew I wanted to work on film, not video.

Asif Kapadia

It's always great to be able to go to a premiere with the actors there.

My background is from India, and I always get asked, 'When are you going to do an Indian film, a musical or Bollywood film?'

Asif Kapadia

Weirdly enough, I live in London - was born there and have lived there all my life - but I hadn't made a film in London for a long time. I hadn't found the right subject. I liked going away, to some far flung place.

There's this great TV show we have called 'Later... with Jools Holland', a live-music show on Friday nights. Anyone and everyone's been on it.

'Amy' is somewhere in the middle of authorized and unauthorized.

Hopefully, when people see 'Senna', they will understand why this inspirational story needed to be told, why it had to be made as a movie for the big screen, and why it is a film for everyone.

After Newport, I worked in television for a while, and then I went to The Royal College Of Art and did a master's degree. I really did study quite a lot!

Asif Kapadia

I'm an ordinary Hackney boy, and I can talk to people.

Asif Kapadia

I lived in Camden, Primrose Hill and Kentish Town for 10 years.

To be teammates in Formula One actually means you are first rivals, not really mates.

On 'Senna,' it got to the point where there was so much footage that our first editor had the wild suggestion that we only use the archive.

Asif Kapadia

Real life is far more complicated than fiction.

Asif Kapadia

I'm a sport fan. So, I have always watched everything, and I used to watch racing. Formula One was always on. The genius about it is that it's on at lunchtime on a Sunday.

Hopefully with digital projection, a film will always look the way the filmmaker intended.

I don't normally make documentaries. I'm a drama director. I've made a few short docs, but I don't like talking heads or 'voice of God' narrators.

Asif Kapadia

The Tour de France would make a great movie. Drugs, corruption, political chicanery, guys risking their lives - everything you need for a great sports drama.

I worked with Michelle Yeoh on my last film, 'Far North,' and her partner is Jean Todt; at the time, he ran Ferrari. So I went as a VIP to the British grand prix.

Asif Kapadia

My background is Indian, so I believe in a spiritual idea that there is another level, another layer or layers, if you will, above us. I believe that there are elements that allow things to be drawn together, a sort of energy.

Asif Kapadia

I want to make my own films from my own scripts based on stories I want to tell, but they take time to put together.

Asif Kapadia

My films often have a spiritual dimension which comes from my Muslim background, and I'm happy to tackle that in cinema.

Asif Kapadia

As far as I'm concerned, I make movies.

Asif Kapadia

My wife Victoria Harwood was art director on 'Far North,' and she had designed my student film, 'The Sheep Thief.'

Asif Kapadia

Directing can be very lonely and quite intimidating.

Asif Kapadia

For me, 'Amy' is a very dark film about love.
