“What I’ve seen him do, he’s turned it into his without giving up mine – but embodying mine with Spike Jonze, and astonishing me at how it maintains its peculiarness as a work. What flows through the whole thing is a such a strange feeling; I’ve never seen a movie that looked or felt like this, and it’s his personal this. He’s not afraid of himself. He’s a real artist that let’s it come through the work. So he’s touched me very much.”
