CANNES - Turkish director Nuri Bilge Ceylan, whose movie "The Three Monkeys" competes in the 61st Cannes Film Festival, said on Sunday that he would continue to let his intuitions lead him in his cinema career.
In an interview with A.A, Ceylan talked about his future projects and replied to the criticisms on his technique.
Noting that he did not have any clear plans for the upcoming period, Ceylan said, "I want to act according to my senses. One`s spiritual and mental situation is of great importance".
Commenting on the colors he used in "The Three Monkeys", Ceylan said selecting colors was a quite "relative" issue.
"When you do something out of the standards, it is quite natural to be criticized," he said.
Ceylan`s movie "The Three Monkeys", which is a French-Italian joint production, displays a family`s efforts to stay together.
The screenplay of the film was written by Ebru Ceylan, Ercan Kesal and Nuri Bilge Ceylan.
Among the film`s competitors at Cannes are Changeling (Clint Eastwood), The Palermo Shooting (Wim Wenders) and Adoration (Atom Egoyan).
