Shakespeare is repeated around the world in different languages, just because it's good storytelling.

My grandma was really sick when I was working on 'Sin Nombre' and eventually died that summer when we were finishing the film. But I was able to bring an unfinished version of the film for her to watch.

Cary Fukunaga

To be straight, I was kind of a dork, and in order to fulfill the creative fires burning inside me, I participated vigorously as a Civil War re-enactor through most of my teenage years, traveling across the country to participate in large scale reenactments - grandiose plays enacted by over weight history buffs and war enthusiasts alike.

Cary Fukunaga

It's a treat and daunting to be directing someone like Judi Dench, who's made more films than I'll ever make in my lifetime.

'Jane Eyre' was one of those films that I was familiar with as a kid, and I always enjoyed the story.

Writing, for me, is an inherent part of understanding the material on a deeper level.

It's hard because there's a part of me that wants 'True Detective' to win every award we're nominated for. But I'm a huge fan of 'Breaking Bad' and 'Game of Thrones.'

I think the semantics of mini-series for a network is that it has an end.

Cary Fukunaga

My friends just make fun of me in some shape or form.

Cary Fukunaga

I don't believe happiness comes out of material gain, for sure.

Cary Fukunaga

On 'Sin Nombre,' Adriano Goldman and I improvised a lot of things on-site. We were working with untrained actors, and you can't really block a scene in a traditional way.

Cary Fukunaga

No, ramen's not good for you. But in Japan, our favorite thing to do after drinking all night, especially in Sapporo where it's freezing cold, is to go to the ramen place at two, three in the morning.

Cary Fukunaga

Literally, I don't have a television. So I don't really know what's happening pop-culturally. I read the 'New York Times.' And there's one worldwide cabin blog that I look at.

I binge write, basically. I do a lot of prep, research, setup. I'll have a pretty detailed outline. Sort of like a beat outline. And then I'll add little notes and dialogue ideas, and I'll just create a 20-page document.

I used to do Civil War re-enacting between the ages of 15 and 19. I was part of a unit that was considered very authentic. We would source the right wools, the right buttons for the costumes. We had the right look.

Cary Fukunaga

Increasingly, there's much better material on television, but there's not always the time and money to make it, so you've got to make sure you make it in the right place. It also depends on time commitment; a lot of directors will make a pilot, but a series is just a whole other level of involvement.

Cary Fukunaga

I'm never more miserable than when I write, and never more happy than having finished and having it sitting in front of me.

Cary Fukunaga

I'm definitely sensitive to the idea of exploitation. You don't want to glamorize certain things.

With 'Sin Nombre,' there are parts that I wish were longer. And with 'Jane Eyre' especially, there were parts that I had to compress that I thought it would have been really nice to spend more time with - to spend with the characters.

Cary Fukunaga

If you're directing, it doesn't really matter any more if it's going straight to TV - what matters is whether you have the resources to make a story that moves you.

I eventually want to do writing on all the films, but not necessarily to be the writer. Writing is a painful, painful thing; it really is.

Cary Fukunaga

When you have a script, and you're discussing what it can be, and who going to play what role, that's a kind of like a fantasy football game. You can imagine these different dream teams interpreting these characters that only exist in your head.

Cary Fukunaga

There's nothing I find more lazy than unmotivated camerawork just to make things look interesting.

Cary Fukunaga

I don't storyboard, and I don't really shot list. I let the shots be determined by how the actors and I figure out the blocking in a scene, and then from there, we cover it.
