Zitat des Tages von Chloe Zhao:
It's important to make time for yourself.
The Indian cowboy is such a uniquely American contradiction.
Maybe, as a Chinese woman, I was never told I would be a filmmaker, so I didn't have the ego set up.
I was born and raised in China, Mandarin is my first language, and I definitely know America. I think that will be my strength, to try and bring the two worlds together.
The films Sony Pictures Classics has distributed throughout the years have been of great inspiration to me. I'm very excited to find such a great home for 'The Rider.'
I'm constantly not on the right side of history. I sympathize with the soldiers in the enemy's camp. For example in WWII, we know the Nazis and the Japanese were wrong. But I sympathize with the individual story of a soldier who was drafted into that.
I want to make more films in the heartland, the forgotten America.
I'm heavily influenced by European and American cinema, but the further I get in my career, the more I find myself looking back East for inspiration.
