"I travel a lot and this is the perfect scenic song, while you're looking out the window of an aeroplane. I remember listening to it while driving through the desert to Coachella. it carries somthing about it; it's just beautiful."

"I’ll never forget a strange story by Camus, ‘The Renegade.’ It told of a Christian missionary who went to convert a desert tribe and instead was converted by them. When he broke one of their rules, they cut his tongue out."

Lawrence of Arabia (1962)

"No list would be complete without Lawrence of Arabia. Again, I’m constantly looking at that film for its sheer bravado, magnificence, scale, scope, and having just shot [The Hurt Locker] in Jordan in the summer of 2007, I visited Wadi Rum, which is the desert in which they shot Lawrence of Arabia, just about two hours outside of Amman. And it’s in the middle of the desert, to which David Lean brought — and this is in the ’60s — arc lights, and a whole production. If you see this desert, first of all, it’s gorgeous, it’s beautiful. But it’s a very forbidding landscape, not one you would imagine would be very film friendly; these beautiful, magnificent, extraordinary kind of red rock buttes that rise out of this red sand… I think Lawrence of Arabia brought us to Jordan and made that the location of choice for The Hurt Locker."

"A very boring film. I have always had a pulsing interest in Atlantis and all interpretations. This film decided that Atlantis is in some caves under the desert. Such a deliberate betrayal to any imagination of the myth is of course inspirational."
