Abenteuerlich / Adventurous Direktor / Director John Kühn / Audacious Natur / Nature Seine / His Stil / Style Vater / Father
My father carries around the picture of the kid who came with his wallet.
I wanted to write and direct movies and not be forced to adapt them from a bestselling book.
One arrives at style only with atrocious effort, with fanatical and devoted stubbornness.
As kids, we did see the Disney movies and the kids' adventure stories of the day.
I always felt a weird obligation to be adventurous.
I ask for a lot of advice from different fathers - all kinds of dads.
My mother was an actress and a director, as well. And my father was a playwright and poet.
My father was a businessman. We had discussions about honesty and dishonesty.
I have a dual role as founder of AERIN and Image and Style Director of Estee Lauder. So work is a bit of a juggling act.
