In my experience as a director, I think there is obviously something of the way men - maybe that's a common point with Shirin - the way men see women in the film, and the way these two characters see each other.
I always try to approach a film from the point of view of the director.
I think like an actor when I'm acting, and I think like a director when I'm directing.
My style of cinema is different and I always look at my films as the audience would.
The character is important, of course, but I like when there's intelligence in a movie. I like when it's, how do you say, sensible. So for me a film is very subjective, and it's a point of view. I like to be brought into a world of a director.
As an actor, I look at scenes much differently than I would look at them as a director, and I never realized that until it actually happened.
Traditionally, I like to watch my plays from the very back.
