"I had these stories and there was no chance of getting anybody else to do them, so I had to become a director of my own work. I never thought I wanted to be a film director. I’m not actually ambitious per se in terms of a career; I’m just ambitious to achieve the stories and dramas that I’ve come up with."
Loved this from Jane Campion. I put this in an old Brass Ring and it feels especially relevant these days, too.
Does your ambition fit the mold you’re giving it?
