Film Quotes

I love sports. Anytime I can combine sports with a film I’m a happy guy. It’s such a natural fit, because sports always seems to be a metaphor for life. Always, always, always Picture Quote #1

I love these movies where it’s just about the film. You don’t have my face on the poster. It’s all about the movie. I like that Picture Quote #1

I mean, certainly writing, painting, photography, dance, architecture, there is an aspect of almost every art form that is useful and that merges into film in some way Picture Quote #1

I think a film set is a quite controlled environment and you feel like you can trust them and it is going to be a safe place to work, but I really don’t think about it Picture Quote #1

I think that narrative, fiction filmmaking is the culmination of several art forms: theater, art history, architecture. Whereas doc filmmaking is more pure cinema, like cinema verite is film in its purest form Picture Quote #1

I’d be lying if I said I had confidence in every choice I’ve made, that I have faith in every film I do on every shot Picture Quote #1

I’ll be honest with you. My kids don’t watch my movies and never have. I can maybe name a film one hand that they’ve seen, actually, all the way through Picture Quote #1

I’m in four different films this year, and I have four different accents. I sound different in every film. You have to love a character to play it well, and change in my work is what I want Picture Quote #1

I’m just happy to be a film where for once I don’t have to worry about my hair, because my managers are always complaining about my hair looking depressing in my movies. Which is true. I mean, it’s true Picture Quote #1

I’m obsessed by film. I’m obsessed with music and producing and making things happen Picture Quote #1

I’ve been interested in dreams since I as a kid and I’ve wanted to do a film about them for a long time Picture Quote #1

I’ve had a lot of experience in independent film, and about how to choose. You’ve got to be very discerning about where you put your five bucks, and where you cut and what you don’t cut Picture Quote #1

I’ve told people who have just started to make a film that the one thing you might experience is this feeling that everybody is conspiring against you, because you’re not necessarily able to tell what’s real and what’s not Picture Quote #1

If there is a book that the script came from you have to read it, you have to see what you can get out of it: mood, back story and things that may not even be in the film. They kick off your imagination and broaden the character, I think Picture Quote #1

If you look at the game and everything, it’s not quite like looking at an animated film, because that’s total character. This, this is really movement, but it’s got funny little things if you look for the humor. They’re actually getting to the character Picture Quote #1

In the modern media age we are rarely surprised by what we see. Whether it’s on television or film or in the theatre, everything is so advertised, so trailed, that most entertainment is merely what you thought it was going to be like Picture Quote #1

In troubled times the last thing you want to do is to stick your money into a film. It’s such a gamble Picture Quote #1

Independent film is almost nonexistent right now, because all the distributers that used to love to put out these little art films are all out of business right now, because it costs so much to open a movie Picture Quote #1

My gut feeling about sequels is that they should be premeditated: You should try to write a trilogy first or at least sketch out a trilogy if you have any faith in your film Picture Quote #1

My husband. He keeps me grounded. If I were in the world on my own, it would all be much more seductive. But I’m in a relationship that has nothing to do with the film world Picture Quote #1

Newlyweds shooting budget: 5k for actors, 2k insurance, 2k food and drink. 9k in the can. We only shot 12 days. That’s how to make an independent film Picture Quote #1

On set is where I feel comfortable. The red carpet stuff, talking about the film, explaining your own life, it doesn’t come naturally. It’s all necessary stuff I suppose but it’s not my strength Picture Quote #1

Once you’re directing, you’re kind of in a certain mode, where you’re taking whatever is on the page and forming it into the film that you think it might want to be. So whether it’s my writing or not, I still try to work with it in the same way Picture Quote #1

One of the reasons I did this, because I wasn’t really looking for another science fiction film, was that my daughter can see it. She’s 9 and it’s really a good film for all ages Picture Quote #1

Perhaps it sounds ridiculous, but the best thing that young filmmakers should do is to get hold of a camera and some film and make a movie of any kind at all Picture Quote #1

So much money and energy is expended making a film that I think it should be used for positive ends Picture Quote #1

The culture of independent film criticism has totally gone down the drain and this seems to come with the territory of the consumer age that we are now living in Picture Quote #1

The film business creates a large amount of waste, and I’m not immune to waste in the business Picture Quote #1

The film is not a success until it makes money. It’s only good when there’s a dollar figure attached to the box office 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
