Film Quotes

I’d rather have a small part in a good film with good people than play the lead in something I don’t really care for Picture Quote #1

But, you know, when I choose a film I need to believe in it and believe I can do something special with it, and after a while that means not trying to judge or analyze why I should do it. You have to follow this intuition thing, which is a mystery to me Picture Quote #1

I have three kids and a wife, and any moments that aren’t dedicated to working on this film in some way, or family, are immediately reserved for sleep Picture Quote #1

Any film I see at two o’clock in afternoon with my mother seems to cast a strange spell that means we both come out sobbing Picture Quote #1

I have watched people who have nothing to do with the film business, but who have become part of the circle for a short period of time. They can be truly devastated when the film wraps and people leave Picture Quote #1

Sometimes you like the personal adventure implicit in the making of a film, and sometimes you like your part in a film, and sometimes you like the final result Picture Quote #1

You can’t be trying to make a film that pleases all people, you know, so it’s not a concern of mine Picture Quote #1

Well, I think every film student goes into film school thinking they want to write and direct their own movies, and they don’t realize how much goes into it, and what a process it is Picture Quote #1

Well, I think that a lot of times when you’re working on a film, there aren’t really opportunities to get to know all the people you have to work with Picture Quote #1

I’ve never done a big studio film, I’ve only ever done little ones Picture Quote #1

I don’t do a film unless it has a sword in it. And if it doesn’t have a sword in it, I insist that they have one in the same room to keep me comfortable Picture Quote #1

I can understand there are things like shadows they need to fix after a shoot, but it’s unfair to represent an image of yourself if it’s not true. They’re gonna see what you look like on film anyway, so why try to cover all your wobbly bits in a photo? Picture Quote #1

Once you work with a studio on a film, the studio is sort of like this enormous clam that just opens, takes everything and then closes, and no one enters again. They own it all Picture Quote #1

The marketing department is really an important part of getting an animated film to work. If the people running it are used to selling live action films and the hard rock music and the sex and all those things... Anything outside that, they just don’t know what to do with it Picture Quote #1

House was the first film where I had no influence on the script. I had to buy the script with the game rights Picture Quote #1

It’s so easy to manipulate an audience, but it’s nearly always clear that you are being manipulated. I think even people that are not critically attuned are aware of cynical manipulation in film Picture Quote #1

I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t fun to go to these nights out, like the opening of a film or something, but I dip in and out of it Picture Quote #1

A lot of film directors are quite scared of actors. They are a bit of a nightmare sometimes, but I like them. It looks like cunning, but you try to get extra things from them all the time, by stealth, by making them feel confident, so they trust you and you can push a bit Picture Quote #1

I’ve never done a film before where every single person in the audience knows the ending. I mean suspense, twists are almost impossible these days. People are blogging your endings from their cinema seats Picture Quote #1

The great thing with film is that it doesn’t have an ego. It’s just a film. Everybody that makes them has an ego, and the problem with awards and stuff like that is that it always affects the egos, and everyone gets stained by it in some way. And that can be fine and very innocent, but it can be horrible as well Picture Quote #1

I thought I was going to be a lot more freaked out by being naked onstage. I think on film I would have been more freaked out, because film is less forgiving. But onstage it’s lit so beautifully. It would make my mother look good Picture Quote #1

I have always been of the mind that good work is good work, whether performed on stage, on television or in film and, like any reasonable actor, I keep my options open Picture Quote #1

Often times people complain about the lack of time in television, but I have to say, you don’t have any more time to film in feature films then you do in television. It’s just a question of how many scenes you’ll be doing in the course of a day Picture Quote #1

My movie is born first in my head, dies on paper; is resuscitated by the living persons and real objects I use, which are killed on film but, placed in a certain order and projected on to a screen, come to life again like flowers in water Picture Quote #1

War is chaotic and when you start having a larger scale film and you have a lot of safety protocols and choreography, I would imagine it becomes more difficult Picture Quote #1

I’m not interesting enough on my own that you’d want to see a film about me Picture Quote #1

There is no other occupation in the world that so closely resembled enslavement as the career of a film star Picture Quote #1

For film and television, it’s interesting how fans feel that their particular ways of manifesting their affections are the correct ones. It’s not just about being a fan, it’s about how you perform your fandom. That’s always been interesting to me Picture Quote #1

The way I see it, when I go out as an actor, it should be on a type of film I’m never going to do as a director Picture Quote #1

I grew up certain for a while that I was going to be an anthropologist, until film turned my head Picture Quote #1
