Filmmakers Quotes

Just in the past few years - since I've been making movies, which isn't a very long time - you now have a culture that is fascinated and informed about the box office in a way that sometimes filmmakers weren't even Picture Quote #1

You can't work in the movies. Movies are all about lighting. Very few filmmakers will concentrate on the story. You get very little rehearsal time, so anything you do onscreen is a kind of speed painting Picture Quote #1

It's a funny thing because you look at the careers of other filmmakers, and you see them sort of slow down, and you realize, maybe this becomes harder to do as you get older. That's sort of a cautionary thing. I hope it doesn't happen to me Picture Quote #1

The more unique your film is and unusual it is and difficult it is, the harder it is to get it financed. That's why a lot of good filmmakers are doing television. They do HBO movies Picture Quote #1

I'm not one of those actors where filmmakers that I admire ask me to be in their movies. I meet them at parties and they're nice to me, but they never ask me to work with them Picture Quote #1

If you look at anybody who's had along career, if you look at the choices they've made - even if the movies haven't worked - they've always worked with great filmmakers Picture Quote #1

A lot of young filmmakers bring their movies to my dad because he always gives lots of good editing ideas and notes. He’d be a good film professor Picture Quote #1

Other filmmakers make their movies and put them out and that’s that. For me, for some odd reason, it goes deeper than that 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

I know many filmmakers, and shooting in IMAX is challenging. Filmmakers love the vividness and power of those big images Picture Quote #1

As filmmakers, we can show where a person’s mind goes, as opposed to theater, which is more to sit back and watch it Picture Quote #1

Historically, filmmakers always fall in love with every frame, but now that even neophytes are given final cut, this love affair carries with it serious economic implications Picture Quote #1

I am filled with awe that filmmakers have the capacity to stir us and give us back a sense of wonder Picture Quote #1

I want to work with great filmmakers and great actors and get better as an actor Picture Quote #1

If there’s anything that I’ve always said about myself is that to me, it’s much more important for me to get to work with filmmakers that I’ve grown up loving and admiring Picture Quote #1

I find a lot of young filmmakers make too much of an effort to be trendy and they can be pretentious Picture Quote #1

There’s a tremendous intellectual fervor among independent filmmakers, and that has to be cultivated Picture Quote #1

I don’t think it’s the job of filmmakers to give anybody answers. I do think, though, that a good film makes you ask questions of yourself as you leave the theatre Picture Quote #1

I don’t consider myself to be particularly gifted in the way that other filmmakers are gifted Picture Quote #1

I look at other filmmakers and see skills in them that I wish I had but I know that I don’t. I feel like I have to work really hard to keep myself afloat, doing what I do. But I find it pleasurable Picture Quote #1

The reason most comedies don’t win awards is that the filmmakers put the comedy first. This means you have to create a story around the jokes Picture Quote #1

Yeah, it’s odd when you look back at your own work. Some filmmakers don’t look back at their work at all. I look at my work a lot, actually. I feel like I learned something while looking at stuff I’ve done in terms of what I’m going to do in the future, mistakes I’ve made and things at work or what have you Picture Quote #1

I think it’s a mistake for young filmmakers to just buy digital equipment and shoot a feature. Make short films first, make your mistakes and learn from them Picture Quote #1

Unlike with any other art form, filmmakers have this unique web of festivals. There are hundreds. It is a democratic system in which you submit films, and if they are good enough, they play. The only barrier to entry is the submission fee Picture Quote #1

You know, I feel like my job is to write a book. Then filmmakers come and they make a movie. And they’re two really different art forms Picture Quote #1

I love working with young people and young filmmakers, and I love working on first films. I think it’s cool. It’s fun. I just take it as it comes Picture Quote #1

I always tell younger filmmakers, it’s not just about the acting or the art itself. It’s about how big of an audience watches your film Picture Quote #1

If you look at the most meaningful science fiction, it didn’t come from watching other films. We seem to be in a place now where filmmakers make films based on other films because that’s where the stimuli and influence comes from Picture Quote #1

It’s nice being friends over a period of time with people whose music you like so much, or other filmmakers, seeing people change, go through trials Picture Quote #1

I’ve spent a great deal of my life doing independent film, and that is partly because the subject matter interests me and partly because that is the basis of the film industry. That’s where the filmmakers come from, it’s where they start and sometimes its where they should have stayed Picture Quote #1
