I have to admit that I had a lot of problems with poetry. – Jane Campion
I had a daughter who was 9 years old and I had the feeling I wasnt going to be a real parent if I didnt quit making movies for a while and spend time with her. I also felt that Id made enough movies and said what I had to say at the time. – Jane Campion
With Bright Star and with The Piano, too, I felt a kind of sadness about it being in such a different era, because of my lack of experience with the era. And one of the ways Id get over it is to remind myself that every film, even if its contemporary, creates its own world. – Jane Campion
I think women dont grow up with the harsh world of criticism that men grow up with, we are more sensitively treated, and when you first experience the world of film-making you have to develop a very tough skin. – Jane Campion
