But I think often our unconsious is steering us in ways that are much more intelligent than we think. It's just seen as that really girly thing to do compared to this really thrilling ambition to be a film director. But instinctively something in my gut knew that if I did it, something was going to happen. Because that is what I really learnt. Dancers go in every morning at nine and do a class whether they've got a hang-over, whether they've got no sleep, whether they're in the mood or not.
Inspiration is irrelevant.
It's all about discipline. Now that is the single biggest lesson that any filmmaker needs to learn. You never rely on inspiration. So I learnt that through dancing. Through the vehicle of Orlando's apparent immortality we experience the mutability of all things and relationships.
