Film Quotes

I love the finality of film. When you make a movie, you know the beginning, middle, and end Picture Quote #1

I was really fortunate that I went to a high school where we actually had a film theory program Picture Quote #1

You always have to give back to the fans. I remember being a fan of television and film when I was growing up and if I would’ve had the opportunity to meet somebody that I watched on television, it would’ve made my day, it would’ve made my life Picture Quote #1

The tone is so important to a film, and that tone can really make something fall or succeed Picture Quote #1

I want to have the illegitimate child of independent film making and the budget to make it. That’s my aspiration Picture Quote #1

You go through different stages when you’re working on the music in film. At least, I do. You have a temp score, so you have music from other people, usually from other movies, to give you a sense of what the mood is supposed to be, what the atmosphere is Picture Quote #1

Every film I try and make it the way I see it in my head, and it really just depends on the script and the people I’m working with or whatever interests me at that particular time Picture Quote #1

I think there is also a certain degree of expectation that’s set up by trailers, where even if you know what’s going to happen in parts of the film based on the trailer, you almost anticipate and look forward to those moments based on having seen the trailer Picture Quote #1

You know, in an ideal world, people would just be intrigued and go and see a film without knowing anything about it, because that’s where you’re going to have the most experience of a film, the biggest, the most revelation of a film. But at the same time, I think there are benefits of having seen a trailer where you actually look forward to seeing moments in a film knowing that they’re coming up. I don’t know which is better Picture Quote #1

There are things which need to be shown in the trailer in order to let the audience know what kind of film it is that they’re going to be expecting to see Picture Quote #1

One of the biggest changes for me on a practical level of shooting the film was having a second unit Picture Quote #1

With film acting, and often when the camera comes very close, you just have to think about something and the camera will pick it up Picture Quote #1

Everyone wants to know what you want to work on and everyone wants to pitch you what they’re working on. And that’s just part of the process. And hopefully, at some point you find someone of like minds and you make a film Picture Quote #1

I wanted my first film to be something where I was surrounded by an amazing cast. I wanted to do something that was completely unexpected, totally out of the box, something that would blow people’s minds, that the last thing on the planet earth they would ever think I would do would be it Picture Quote #1

Every screenwriter worthy of the name has already directed his film when he has written his script Picture Quote #1

The mind can be thought of as containing reels and reels of motion picture film about our past experiences. These images are superimposed not only on each other but also on the lens through which we experience the present Picture Quote #1

My role as goodwill ambassador has made my work as a film star relatively dull. I can`t find anything that interests me enough to go back to work. I`m simply not excited about anything. I`m not excited about going to a film set Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in putting in music as a band aid to get you over some rough parts or bad film making. If it’s there it’s got to add to it or take it to another level Picture Quote #1

There is no art form that has so much in common with film as music. Both affect our emotions directly, not via the intellect Picture Quote #1

Until film is just as easily accessible as a pen or pencil, then it’s not completely an art form. In painting you can just pick up a piece of chalk, a stick or whatever. In sculpture you can get a rock. Writing you just need a pencil and paper Picture Quote #1

For all the power of video and film, I am not giving up my pen... together they are more than the sum of their parts Picture Quote #1

My own eyes are no more than scouts on a preliminary search, for the camera’s eye may entirely change my idea, even switch me to different subject matter. So I start out with my mind as free from image as the silver film on which I am to record, and I hope as sensitive Picture Quote #1

A state has the right to prohibit the killing of dogs and bears whether for film or for other purposes 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

Music, to me, is the most beautiful form, and I love film because film is very related to music. It moves by you in its own rhythm... Imagine the world without music. Man, just hand me a gun, will you? Picture Quote #1

Truth is a pursuit, it’s a quest. And proof is certainly in the pudding in this particular instance, because the film, and the evidence accumulated in making the film, led to this man’s release from prison. And that’s hardly ever happened, if it’s happened at all, in any other film that I can think of Picture Quote #1

If I can’t find a theme, I can’t make a film anyone else will feel. I can’t laugh at intellectual humor. I’m just corny enough to like to have a story hit me over the heart Picture Quote #1

Sex is a doorway to something so powerful and mystical, but movies usually depict it in a completely flat way. Being explicit doesn’t tap into the mystical aspect of it either in fact, that usually kills it because people don’t want to see sex so much as they want to experience the emotions that go along with it. These things are hard to convey in film because sex is such a mystery Picture Quote #1

If you decide to direct a film, it’s because you have something to say, something to show to the audience Picture Quote #1

I think that people are going to find more interest in the human condition, especially with them being weaned on so much reality television. They want character driven stuff along with real violence. Cage fighting is very popular with the kids right now. They see and know what one punch can do to someone’s face. You can’t give someone five hundred punches in a film anymore Picture Quote #1
