Films Quotes

I was sent to boarding school - a grim place. The only good thing the headmaster did for us was every Sunday evening in the winter he would show us films in the chapel. He couldn’t afford a sound projector, so we saw silent films, which you could then still rent from photographic shops Picture Quote #1

You live these three months in this reality, in this dark reality. You don’t want to do those films every year because they’re taxing. I started smoking a lot of cigarettes Picture Quote #1

In other films and TV shows, we might say, Well, they’re just evil. In our show [Daredeval], we’re trying to say, There’s bad actions, but not necessarily bad people Picture Quote #1

I think when I was getting into directing, or wanting to be a director, when I was a teenager, the two films that really inspired me were Raising Arizona and Evil Dead II. And in the case of the former, I thought, Wow. Why don’t all comedies look like this? And then as I started doing comedy, particularly when I started doing it on TV Picture Quote #1

If you think about it, a lot of great horror films have bad sequels just because the market demands you to make the other one right away. Thank God no one in the ‘Evil Dead’ family thinks that way Picture Quote #1

I make short films, little documentaries, about the co-evolution of humans and technology Picture Quote #1

For me, my films are not like my children. They are like my ex-wife. They gave me so much; I gave them so much; I loved them so much; we part ways, and it’s OK, we part ways Picture Quote #1

Franchises aren’t to be avoided. They can be exciting, and they give you opportunities to do other films Picture Quote #1

You do get really exhausted doing films. You work such long hours, and after a while, things can get out of perspective, just like if anyone’s tired, things get on top of them Picture Quote #1

When the Bond films started, people didn’t travel quite as much as they do now; a lot of people had never been outside of their own country, and certainly sitting in the cinema and seeing these exotic locations - I mean, that movie did great things for India, for tourism. They were very wise to allow us to film there Picture Quote #1

I don’t want anyone to expect anything from any of my films; I just want them to see it and then tell me what they think Picture Quote #1

My first film as an actor was ‘Fast Times at Ridgemont High,’ a glorious experience that spoiled me for future films Picture Quote #1

I had done student films for the School Of Visual Arts and for NYU and all these schools in New York, so those were my first film experiences, but they were student films, so I guess they don’t really count Picture Quote #1

I graduated from UC San Diego, wanted to work in film to get my hands-on real experience, did music videos, TV, feature films, all kinds of stuff Picture Quote #1

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

I actually went to film school and was making experimental films for a short time, so it wasn’t such a leap Picture Quote #1

I was originally a painter, and I made films sort of as an extension of that, and then I started to try to make dramatic films because the early films were experimental films Picture Quote #1

Free time keeps me going. It’s just something that’s always been a part of my life. I was originally a painter, and I made films sort of as an extension of that, and then I started to try to make dramatic films because the early films were experimental films Picture Quote #1

I think indie films have more of a fresh, experimental vibe about them, whereas studio films know what they want and can basically get it Picture Quote #1

There are lots of great movies coming out of the U.S. but it’s not something I’ve ever really been interested in. They’re great films but I much prefer the smaller independent films, which are more thought provoking and experimental Picture Quote #1

There certainly is no secret in that there are plenty of people who don’t like plenty of my movies. Each one of my films is personal; each one of my films is emotionally autobiographical. And I like directors who do that. With each one of my films, I’m exploring one of my own issues and I try to expose myself a little in the film Picture Quote #1

Usually I’m frustrated when I look at my films and I don’t believe that I’ve made a real transformation beyond my usual sets of gestures and expressions. I still have this nagging feeling that it’s me, that I didn’t create a unique character Picture Quote #1

You grow up watching certain films or admiring certain filmmakers, and to write a love letter to one and have them validate it, it’s extraordinary Picture Quote #1

I hadn’t been there [Comic-Con] before. It’s pretty eye-opening, when you haven’t been there, just with the sheer amount of fans that are there for different shows and films. It’s like a big fan symposium, in a way, as well a way for film studios and television studios to really promote their product to their loyal audience base. It was an experience Picture Quote #1

I’ve made a dozen films in the English language. But then, for love, for my family and friends, I returned to Europe... I annoyingly - looking back - turned down films like 007, ‘For Your Eyes Only,’ written specially for me Picture Quote #1

A lot of books, if you take them at face value, they’re just not gonna work as films Picture Quote #1

I love the process of making films and an incidental satisfaction is the fact that most of them made money Picture Quote #1

It’s really interesting making films and actually seeing the life that they have in the subsequent years and seeing which ones stand up over time and which ones sort of fade away Picture Quote #1

I have a production company called Home Theater Films which makes faith-based films Picture Quote #1
