- I think 'Shine of Rainbows' went to about 30 film festivals and was in competition in about half of them. It did very well in about 75 per cent, which tells me there is a craving for something decent and nice and wholesome, as opposed to bang bang bang, and a five-second attention span.
- [on 'Desert Riders' and the training of mid-east children to become camel jockeys] Who would have ever thought that there is such a nightmare going on? The young age of the children.. how anyone could even think of bringing them in and putting them on a camel. Where do we point the finger so it doesn't happen again, and we learn a lesson from it?... We're all part of it, even myself, as an audience.... It comes down to poverty, politics and power. But I think in this case, poverty is the key, the germ for all that.
