Directors Quotes

I’ve never been difficult to anybody or with anybody on a picture. Especially when you’re in that nice status of hierarchy of actors and actresses who get to approve directors. Because once you make that choice, it’s my belief that the director’s boss Picture Quote #1

When I started out modeling, there weren’t casting directors and there weren’t stylists, so you just dealt directly with the designer. We were all much closer back then Picture Quote #1

I feel that directors at times are like the janitors on the set. I am the secretary, I am the organizer, I am the maid, and I ask if they have eaten or rested. The best things are always out of your control. It’s those moments that surpass the imagination that are thrilling Picture Quote #1

I’ve really enjoyed my work in television, but the problem for me is the turnover of directors every week Picture Quote #1

Different directors offer you different things, and it’s not necessarily the most obvious things Picture Quote #1

The most nurturing of directors can make you feel too comfortable, and you don’t really push for that extra whatever Picture Quote #1

I don’t know what it is, exactly, but there’s a negative drag on film sets after the second week or so, a mutinous vibe because the infinite capacities of the directors and everybody else become quite finite and everybody’s under the gun and it becomes work Picture Quote #1

A lot of directors prefer the solitude of the editing process, but I revel in the craziness of what a film set is Picture Quote #1

Directors tend to be more underrated than overrated because it’s a quiet job and people don’t really understand it Picture Quote #1

I think part of the fun of being an actor is getting to work with different directors and seeing their take on it, what they’re passionate about. They all have different ideas about your character Picture Quote #1

You have to remind casting directors out here that you don’t just do one thing. There’s a lot of people who do just one thing Picture Quote #1

As an actor, I love working with directors. As much as I love working with other actors Picture Quote #1

I’ve always said to people that auteurism is nice, but it’s hypothetical, and gradually you learn how much or how little influence different directors had Picture Quote #1

Human nature is not amenable to prediction based on the trends or tendencies prevailing at the time. It is amenable to startling creativity of the kind practiced by great artists, directors, writers, musicians, actors, who know how to touch a chord in humans everywhere Picture Quote #1

I read every screenplay that was being sent to the other directors. None were being sent to me, but I was reading what others were choosing and what the best writers were writing Picture Quote #1

I go where the material is, and I feel like I’m looking for really strong directors. That’s the key ingredient. There are some directors I would move the sun and earth for, or stop the rotation of the planets, just to work with them Picture Quote #1

I like to think of myself as a fairly educated human being, but I’m a very uneducated actor when it comes to movies, directors, producers, actors for that matter Picture Quote #1

There are plenty of bad actors and there are plenty of bad directors. There are actors who will always be bad and there are good actors who you cry for because they’re being badly directed or the material isn’t good enough Picture Quote #1

I guarantee you that two directors that are any good can take the same story, change the name of the characters, change the name of the town, and make an entirely different picture Picture Quote #1

I acted for so many years and sat on a million sets and worked with a million different directors so that is to me some of the best training you can get Picture Quote #1

Look, a lot of directors were actors, even if they were unsuccessful actors which I think is helpful. I think it’s a really helpful thing for a director to have experienced that. It helps you know how to talk to actors and how to get what you need from them Picture Quote #1

Sometimes directors may not give you words, you know? They may not talk at all! You’ve just got to use your radar to figure out how you can get to the center and not lose yourself, but still be directed at the same time Picture Quote #1

You hear stories about directors using manipulation to get actors to do certain things, but I think when you’re working with professional actors, it’s all about trust. They can do anything you want, it’s just a matter of them understanding what you’re looking for, and the reason why Picture Quote #1

I love test screenings. Some directors don’t, I know. But I love it. I think it’s because I come from the theatre and in the theatre, previews are where you really have to listen to the audience and really feel how they’re responding. I found our test screenings incredibly useful Picture Quote #1

My height can be a problem. A lot of directors and photographers are sometimes not happy because I’m pretty tall and especially if I work with short actors the difference can be pretty massive Picture Quote #1

There are so many great directors that I haven’t worked with and that I would love to work with Picture Quote #1

There’s good directors and bad directors. Some of the critics are really conscientious and really try to do what they can popularize the work or to explain the work and so on. And then there’s the critics who just wants to make a reputation by attacking. Those are the ones I’m not keen on Picture Quote #1

I’ve worked with more than 50 directors and I’ve paid attention since day one. That’s pretty much been my education, apart from studying art history and shooting with my own cameras. I’ve seen 50 different sets of mistakes and 50 different ways of achieving Picture Quote #1

It all depends on the directors. Working closely with a director is the main job of a film composer. Interpreting what he perceives as a color, an emotion or mood is very abstract. A director tells you something he wants and then you have to run back Picture Quote #1

Carbon trading engages finance directors. It takes the issue of energy efficiency right to the top of the company Picture Quote #1
