Panos Cosmatos : (5)

" I try to look at the films as I make them from a distance, in a way. I think of them as kind of pop culture artefacts. I’ll often make posters and tag lines as I’m working on them, and not just conceive of them as a story I’m going to tell, but as a whole, a piece – a whole object that exists in the pop culture realm. " - Panos Cosmatos

" If I’m going to sell out, I’m going to sell out all the way, so a bid by the studio would be if you’re going to go through the pain of trying to make a film, it’s gotta be worth it. " - Panos Cosmatos

" A huge part of my writing process is listening to music as I write, almost creating an unofficial soundtrack to the film I’m working on, a sort of playlist. But the specific songs change rapidly as I write. " - Panos Cosmatos

" I think most religious belief structures are essentially like mind viruses. " - Panos Cosmatos

" I just find there’s nothing funnier and more scary than a delusional man who thinks they’re the center of the universe, and in fact they’re not. " - Panos Cosmatos
