- [on Dunkirk (2017)] For all its more serious subject matter, this film really is a theatrical experience and it really is a suspenseful, action-oriented film. So to us, it felt that the summer was absolutely the logical place for it. We've come to a point where we feel like a summer movie has to be a superhero movie or a sequel. And I don't believe that to be the case. [2017]
