Brett Ratner Quotes

Less money sometimes allows you to be more creative Picture Quote #1

My mom had me when she was 16, and I was an only child, which is probably why I received a lot of love and didn’t miss that my father wasn’t around Picture Quote #1

You’ve got to think about how to do things for the right price. You have to shoot in different places to be creative and get tax rebates Picture Quote #1

When I do short films, I try to do something completely out of my comfort zone, out of my element Picture Quote #1

I’ve watched ‘Being There’ over 50 times, and every time I watch it, I love every frame. I just wish I had directed it myself Picture Quote #1

I personally can watch an eight-hour documentary on Woody Allen because I’m fascinated by him. But, an audience can’t really sit through more than two and a half hours on any movie. It doesn’t matter if Marlon Brando came back from the dead. It’s just impossible Picture Quote #1

I went to a public high school and most of the comedy was coming from the black kids and the Asian kids and the Hispanic kids. And, the coolest kids to me where always the black kids. They were always fashion forward and they always dressed the coolest. They were always the best dancers, and just the coolest people Picture Quote #1

Do I have a small movie in me? Yeah, probably, when I’m 60. But I’m not Hal Ashby, I’m not Roman Polanski. I’m true to myself. Whether you like it or not Picture Quote #1

I learn more from the audience than I can from anybody else. Not from what they write on the scorecards, but how they respond to the movie while they’re watching it - where they laugh and where they react Picture Quote #1

When I was 13, Eddie Murphy was to me what Chris Tucker was to 13-year-olds when I made ‘Rush Hour.’ And ‘Rush Hour’ really came out of the fact that I grew up watching ‘Beverly Hills Cop’ and 48 Hrs.’ Picture Quote #1

They say your childhood influences your tastes and interests, or your approach if you’re an artist. So what you create, whatever you saw, whatever your childhood was like - it influences how you’re going to end up Picture Quote #1

I’m trying to be a little bit more mature about my choices and think about what I want to direct next, instead of just jumping into a movie ‘cause I want to do it Picture Quote #1

Having love in your heart doesn’t count for much if what comes out of your mouth is ugly and bigoted Picture Quote #1

Miami Beach - that’s where I grew up, in a middle-class Jewish family led by my maternal grandfather. Me, my great-grandmother - a Holocaust survivor, who was my roommate - my grandparents, my mom and her brother all shared a four-bedroom house Picture Quote #1

You can’t reinvent the wheel. You’ve got to just take the best from all the other shows and try to make it work, because there’s the live show Gods that dictate if there are going to be any surprises, if there’s a very commercial film that’s a Best Picture. There are a lot of things that are out of my control, but I do my best Picture Quote #1

Would it be nice to win a film award one day? Yes. But the critics are going to have to wait till I’m ready. Right now, my gift is making big movies that audiences want to see Picture Quote #1

Producing is making films without having to work sometimes. It’s still making films, but it’s a different job Picture Quote #1

You’ve got to think about how to do things for the right price. You have to shoot in different places to be creative and get tax rebates Picture Quote #1

I’m not tied to budgets. I’m tied to the story that I want to tell, and how much it’s going to cost is up to whatever the economic situation of the studio is Picture Quote #1

At the end of the day, audiences just want to laugh and be entertained. They want to escape from their reality, and that’s why we make movies, to get people to escape from the realities Picture Quote #1

People can criticise all day long, I think I’ve proven myself, I think I deliver. And I agree, box office does not mean a movie’s good, but I feel like I’m making good movies and I’m delivering in box office Picture Quote #1

There’s no greater feeling than people coming up to me and going, Man, my father was dying, and we went to see Rush Hour, and it was the greatest night we had in years together. We sat in that theater and we laughed for two hours without stopping. That was just a great memory that I had before my father died Picture Quote #1
