I want my great-granddaughter to have a fairly good understanding of the world in which I lived for 81 years and also the world before I came into it - all the way back a hundred thousand years, to the beginning of our species.
I had to satisfy the action fans, the romantic fans, the intellectual fans. It was a terrific burden.
My father was a certain kind of man - I saw how he treated my mother and his family and how he treated strangers. And I vowed I would never make a film that would not reflect properly on my father's name.
I was a gift to my mother. She was a remarkable person. God or nature, or whatever those forces are, smiled on her, then passed me the best of her.
I wouldn't change a single thing, because one change alters every moment that follows it.
But I always had the ability to say no. That's how I called my own shots.
