Director Quotes

A man sooner or later discovers that he is the master - gardener of his soul, the director of his life Picture Quote #1

I don't feel the need to direct. I tried to get other people to direct dances, but they wouldn't do it. They all thought it was too long. One director wanted to cut the civil war sequence. Another thought the white woman was very cliched Picture Quote #1

It became very clear to the director that it would be foolish not to use our friendship. I had tried to talk to him about it because all the relationships in the film are so, not negative, but antagonistic. There's not a lot of love going around Picture Quote #1

I'm so happy to have been a part of that process and I would go straight back into the desert in a ton of chain mail for Ridley any day of the week. He's an amazing director and I can't wait to see the long version Picture Quote #1

Sometimes a character is really based on research that you do. Other times it's just based on your imagination or perhaps your conversation with the director. Or sometimes all of the above. It depends on the movie and character Picture Quote #1

In Dreams. Well, I was slightly overcompensating with that. I was a bit like a director for hire, so maybe I was putting too much imagery that was familiar to me into it Picture Quote #1

I am very clear that when I work with a director what he or she says is the last word Picture Quote #1

My favorite parts of work as an actor and a director are those unplanned mistakes that do happen, because it’s like catching lightning in a bottle. It’s the best part of what we do Picture Quote #1

Historically the director has been the key creative element in a film and we must maintain that. We must protect that, in spite of the fact that there is new technology that’s continually trying to erode that Picture Quote #1

I feel fortunate. I’ve really gotten to work with amazing talented people, and to learn from them, which is why I’m doing this. If I can work with the best director I’m going to do it Picture Quote #1

On the stage, you alone hold the key, and on the night you have to trust that the director has inspired you enough to take the material and run with it Picture Quote #1

The first work of the director is to set a mood so that the actor’s work can take place, so that the actor can create. And in order to do that, you have to communicate, communicate with the actors. And direction is about communication on all levels Picture Quote #1

The relationship between an actor and a director is like a love story between a man and a woman. I’m sure sometimes I’m the woman Picture Quote #1

The thing that fascinates me is that the way I came to film and television is extinct. Then there were gatekeepers, it was prohibitively expensive to make a film, to be a director you had to be an entrepreneur to raise money Picture Quote #1

What I look for in a script is something that challenges me, something that breaks new ground, something that allows me to flex my director muscle. You have got to think fast in this business, youve got to keep reinventing yourself to stay on top Picture Quote #1

When I was very young I wanted to be a professional horseback rider. Then I wanted to be a pop singer. Then I wanted to be a psychiatrist. Then I wanted to be a movie director Picture Quote #1
