Lee Daniels: ‘I know I’m in a lane of my own’ (Getty)
Lee Daniels is a filmmaker, but he’s also a wavelength. You either get him, or you don’t. The Oscar-nominated director of
Precious and
The Paperboy, and co-creator of the record industry TV soap
Empire, makes polarising entertainment that sweats. There’s often outrageous sex, flushed cheeks and the rampant excavating of life’s taboos. “I know I’m in a lane of my own,” he says firmly. “No one is going to experience my life or see the world the way that I’m seeing it. And certainly not these old white men that are interviewing me.”
