Gary Couzens
- "Sex is part of what we do. To not explore it as a filmmaker is denying a whole part of ourselves."
- "The choices that are made about how sex is cinematically represented is very much a choice that is really to be determined between the filmmaker and the actors themselves. From my point of view as a filmmaker, as long as there is no abuse or exploitation in that, then essentially the filmmaker and actors have the right to explore the representation of those scenes in a truthful way."
- "On the one hand, we seem to be frightened of sex. And yet there's no questioning of the rampant violence that is depicted on screen."
- "I received a lot of offers to go to America after Head On. But I didn't become a filmmaker to go to Hollywood. I'm passionate about film and the possibility of telling stories important to me. I think Hollywood would be shocking. They have a completely different idea of what films are about."
- "Cinema still has the power to provoke a visceral response and it is the role of the artist to provoke and question. I want to go to the heart of the contemporary complacency. It's OK if it creates a fuss."
