I kind of always wanted my own music to just sound like, like me, I suppose, like if I was music it would be the music I make, I think.
The music of language became extremely important to me, and obvious to me. By the time I was seven I was writing myself. I was a poet.
I've been very lucky in my long life. On three continents, in diverse cultures, through happy moments, not-so-happy moments, and moments as marvelous as this one, I've had the privilege of working with the cinema's greatest masters.
