It’s incredible to see the creativity, beauty and hardships people capture when filmmaking is opened up and shared with the world Picture Quote #1

Some people think that horror films are some sort of second class filmmaking, and the only way to bypass that thinking is being proud of the fact that we do it Picture Quote #1

Documentary filmmaking has all the challenges and hardships of narrative filmmaking without any of the infrastructure or support. That’s both a blessing and a curse Picture Quote #1

I love the filmmaking process. It can be loud sometimes, and people love having conference calls, so working on a book is the polar opposite. It’s very relaxing Picture Quote #1

Daniel Craig is brilliant as Bond: there is no question about that. But it’s a different Bond. It’s the cross pollination of ‘The Bourne Identity’ and ‘James Bond;’ that kind of style of filmmaking Picture Quote #1

People ask me about ‘The Hurt Locker’ a lot, and it’s an incredible piece of filmmaking - as are ‘Band of Brothers’ and ‘Platoon’ and ‘Full Metal Jacket’ and ‘Apocalypse Now.’ But they’re not necessarily true to war in a literal sense. What they are, really, are brilliant movies about Hollywood’s idea of war Picture Quote #1

I spent several years in the film finance business, but I returned to what I loved most about the industry - actual filmmaking, producing, writing and directing Picture Quote #1

I personally think a fight scene is the most cinematic thing you can witness because all the elements of filmmaking come together, you know, with the camera speed changes, editing, make up effects and general smoke and mirrors of trying to make it look like you are hitting someone when you’re not. It’s filmmaking in it’s purest form, I think Picture Quote #1

I was going to design sports cars, but my father came to my college to visit me. At the time he was making a picture in Sweden and he took me there with him. I got to see Ingmar Bergman’s company and I thought, ‘Gee, filmmaking is a lot more fun than sports cars,’ so I decided to follow him and go into acting Picture Quote #1

I like challenges. If you’re involved, as one is, in filmmaking, you want to challenge yourself. You don’t want to repeat what you’re done before Picture Quote #1

Filmmaking in general is about feeling and not about theory. You need to know a lot of rules about filmmaking: character development, grammar, and all these thing, but then you use it instinctively. I ask myself this question all the time. I have no solid theory, I just do what I feel is right Picture Quote #1

The filmmaking process is a very personal one to me, I mean it really is a personal kind of communication. It’s not as though its a study of fear or any of that stuff Picture Quote #1

We’ve kind of grown up in a post-Star Wars era, and what Star Wars did to cinema, in terms of an explosion of that kind of blockbuster culture. It’s thrown up a generation of geeks. With the evolution of computer games and the Internet, that’s all impacted on us as a generation, and affected the creative element of that generation enormously. So whereas the different schools of filmmaking Picture Quote #1
