The hero has to be an archetype; they have to be like a dream; they have to be perfect. The evil is closer to us.
英雄必须是一个原型；他们必须像梦一样；他们必须是完美的。邪恶离我们更近。
My style is that I have no style.
我的风格是我没有风格。
I guess, in a sense, 'Audition' was a film that gave me an opportunity that I hadn't had up until that point. So that's definitely one that is important to me. Then there's 'Visitor Q' that kind of taught me that there are some kinds of films that can only be made as low-budget films that really wouldn't work as anything else.
我想，在某种意义上，《海选》是一部给了我一个机会的电影，直到那时我还没有机会。所以这对我来说绝对很重要。还有《访客Q》，它教会了我，有些电影只能制作成低成本的电影，而不能像其他电影那样运作。
For many years, I was on working on films which were so small of a budget that I could not even build a set. So, when I was finally able to work on set, it was a rewarding moment. I felt the same feeling when the camera changed from 16 mm to 35 mm.
多年来，我一直致力于制作预算如此之小的电影，甚至连一套都造不出来。所以，当我终于能够在片场工作时，那是一个值得的时刻。当相机从16毫米变成35毫米时，我也有同样的感觉。
I am like any other human being; I am full of different sides.
我和其他人一样；我充满了不同的一面。
The position of an assistant director in Japan is a handyman who does everything if necessary. They must overcome the unreasonable demands of hard-hearted and whimsical directors, and staff with different personalities or habits.
在日本，助理导演的职位是一个勤杂工，在必要的时候做任何事情。他们必须克服铁石心肠、异想天开的董事以及性格或习惯不同的员工的不合理要求。
I believe that when people try to live their life at the fullest, there's a certain laughter that comes out of it. The more they try to live their life seriously, the funnier it is.
我相信，当人们试图过上充实的生活时，总会有一种笑声从中冒出来。他们越是认真地生活，生活就越有趣。
