But I think its quite clear in my work that my orientation isnt political or doesnt come out of modern politics. – Jane Campion
But short films are not inferior, just different. I think the short gives a freedom to film-makers. Whats appealing is that you dont have as much responsibility for storytelling and plot. They can be more like a portrait, or a poem. – Jane Campion
Its been such a deep and amazing journey for me, getting close to John Keats, and also I love Shelley and Byron. I mean, the thing about the Romantic poets is that theyve got the epitaph of romantic posthumously. They all died really young, and Keats, the youngest of them all. – Jane Campion
I can get very philosophical and ask the questions Keats was asking as a young guy. What are we here for? Whats a soul? Whats it all about? What is thinking about, imagination? – Jane Campion
