Films Quotes

There are a lot of films that are drug dramas, and we didn’t want to tell Scarface again Picture Quote #1

My first few films were institutional comedies, and you’re on pretty safe ground when you’re dealing with an institution that vast numbers of people have experienced: college, summer camp, the military, the country club Picture Quote #1

What is attempted in these film is of course a synthesis. But it can be seen by someone who has his feet in both cultures. Someone who will bring to bear on the films involvement and detachment in equal measure Picture Quote #1

These films however, have ambiguity built into them, because it’s too easy in film to make a strident work of propaganda or advertising, which are really the same thing anyway, meaning the message is unmistakable Picture Quote #1

Luck, I never looked to make difficult movies on purpose. You make the films you can make Picture Quote #1

I’m a fan of making films. Whether I’m on stage or in front of a camera, one of my first loves is performing for the people. I’d like to do more acting Picture Quote #1

There’s the concept that if I do this big budget project, then that will help me do the things I really want to do and bring more money to those films Picture Quote #1

It’s not easy to strap yourself down to a desk and bash on a keyboard when you know you can direct lots of films, because directing films is fun and interactive and gregarious. Writing isn’t Picture Quote #1

My principal job is to make interesting and entertaining films, and I’m not proud of which format or which particular technique I use. I just wanted the film to look good Picture Quote #1

I’ve certainly auditioned for big budget studio films. I don’t know if it’s because there’s so much money involved, but a lot of times the pressure overwhelms me and engulfs me. I end up falling apart in the audition Picture Quote #1

Their films would probably be better if they’d seen a few more films, which runs counter to this idiotic theory that you run the risk of being influenced if you see too much Picture Quote #1

I learn so much from watching films like that with commentary and then when you get to hear another filmmaker talk about their films it’s a really great experience Picture Quote #1

It’s very difficult to break into motion pictures, but it’s oddly easier for directors today because of independent films and cable, who have inherited for the most part those films of substance that the studios are reluctant to finance Picture Quote #1

What is it like when you see me in all these films and then you meet me? Were you intimidated? Picture Quote #1

I don’t see me doing $100 million films because $100 million films, the very nature of them, you need to offend as few people as possible just to make your money back Picture Quote #1

The films that I’ve done before were original stories most of the time, I did two adaptations before this, but they were mostly original stories where I had complete freedom to evolve in the direction I wanted Picture Quote #1

I still think like a critic, and I still analyze films like a critic. However, it’s not possible to write criticism if you’re making films Picture Quote #1

Technical skill counts for nothing if it is used only to manufacture films which have little to do with humanity Picture Quote #1

Advertisements

I’d made these experimental films but I thought the major chore of a filmmaker was to relate to actors Picture Quote #1

As you can probably tell, I like films and directors that bring a totally unique style to filming action Picture Quote #1

There are still things technically about films that I think are a mystery to me and I want to remain a mystery. I don’t particularly want to know what everyone’s job is because I’ve got lines to learn Picture Quote #1

It makes me forget that I’m not going to be a major star and lead female in films whether it was 20 years ago, 10 years ago, five or in the future Picture Quote #1

Unfortunately, I ended up kind of getting sadly duped, in a way. I haven’t had an agent in 10 years, and now I’m doing some of the most interesting films I’ve ever had an opportunity to play in Picture Quote #1

So our films had a lot more to them than entertainment value, and I’m glad that a lot of people recognize that now. People realize now the value of them as educational Picture Quote #1

Well, you’ll find the most boring part of it is the waiting, at least if it’s in films anyway. Television’s a lot faster, but the product... I don’t think it’s as good as a film Picture Quote #1

All we try and do is make the best films we can. If you do that then hopefully the audiences will come, and they have. Everything else is gravy Picture Quote #1

We’ve been working with the very best in the business. The studio really just let us alone to make the films Picture Quote #1

It would be like the films I’ve seen where wardens would decide to be in a jail cell for a week, to get a sense of what it would be like to be a prisoner Picture Quote #1

A lot of more modern films seem to just be out for violence or sex or what have you, without relating it to what’s going within human beings. But every now and then one comes along that does that, and it’s a joy Picture Quote #1

I’m so lucky because I get to have all of these memories. I can have all of those pictures and different sorts of films and stuff. Some people have only one photo, and I’m really glad that I have all of that Picture Quote #1
