We created Pure Flix to make uplifting and inspiring content on a consistent, ongoing basis, so audiences would truly have an alternative to what Hollywood puts out. Pure Flix produces faith and family films, so the audience is the entire family Picture Quote #1

The cool thing about doing films and being different characters is that it’s new everyday and new every project. So, you’re always learning something different and you get to do research Picture Quote #1

Most of the projects aren’t that interesting anymore. There used to be a day when the studios made amazing films, and they were about human beings Picture Quote #1

I no longer do a film for the wrong reasons. I have to be convinced ethically and morally. Both the director and I have to be on the same page. There are just five songs in most films these days, and they have to be amazing. There has to be a twist in the screenplay. The editing has to be crisp. Your hard work should show, but effortlessly Picture Quote #1

In fact, it is amazing how much European films - Italian, French, German and English - have recovered a certain territory of the audience in their countries over the last few years Picture Quote #1

I’ve worked on films where the budgets are almost limitless and you’re in trailers that are bigger than a hotel room. You’re taken care of and the food is amazing, the quality of the job is amazing and then you work on smaller things but it never dictates my happiness or my willingness to go to work Picture Quote #1

Everybody knows about Peter Jackson, ‘The Hobbit’ movies and ‘The Lord of the Rings’ films being made in New Zealand, and to actually have been part of it for such a long period, to live there and to have friends that I will have for life because of that experience, is an amazing thing Picture Quote #1

Films are amazing. To be a part of a movie is the greatest. It’s so historic and exciting Picture Quote #1

I think about a Richard Avedon photo series, the kind of faces he gets of real people, which I find so captivating. Fellini was also great in filling his films with this ambiance, this environment, sometimes chaotic and carnival-like, but people’s faces were always amazing Picture Quote #1

When I first envisioned ‘Funny Games’ in the mid-1990s, it was my intention to have an American audience watch the movie. It is a reaction to a certain American cinema, its violence, its naivety, the way American cinema toys with human beings. In many American films, violence is made consumable Picture Quote #1

My relationship with American audiences is the exact same as it always has been. They never came to see my films, and they don’t come now Picture Quote #1

Right before ‘American Dreams,’ I started to pursue these avenues, like short films and getting into a couple night courses to really study photography and cinematography, and the language of visual storytelling Picture Quote #1

I always feel that crime films are about capitalism because it is a genre where it is perfectly acceptable for all the characters to be motivated by the desire for money.

In the late 1930s, both the British and American movie industries made a succession of films celebrating the decency of the British Empire in order to challenge the threatening tide of Nazism and fascism and also to provide employment for actors from Los Angeles’s British colony. The best two were Hollywood’s Gunga Din and Britain’s The Four Feathers Picture Quote #1

I may not be the number one movie star, or my films might not be doing too good. I am grateful for what life has offered me. I have got a great family, parents are together, have a great sister, I get to holiday. All these things make me grateful towards life, for everything. I always say - have an attitude of gratitude Picture Quote #1

It seems that we’re heading toward the day that films will be released in all platforms simultaneously, albeit with a cost premium to see it at home.
