Films Quotes

People who actually tell stories, meaning people who write novels and make feature films, don’t see themselves as storytellers Picture Quote #1

All in all, I’d like to venture into film. Films are my staple diet, so I would love to be part of a feature film, independent film... it all just depends on the story and the people behind it, really Picture Quote #1

I was writing short films and I was going through this really, really, really terrible end of a relationship that I didn’t want to be going through. It was too much for me to process and all of a sudden I had this idea for my first feature film and I knew right away I had to start writing it Picture Quote #1

I got too fed up with films that didn’t make you think. I liked the idea of one that you’d have to be dancing around with. I like my mind to be engaged when I watch a film Picture Quote #1

I’ve never made any concessions, so I am 100% responsible for my films. This makes me feel very proud Picture Quote #1

My feeling is, when you are writing an essay, you don’t make anything up. This may be a very Protestant notion, and I’m aware of the fact that memory is fallible, that if I had access to films or some absolute documentary evidence of what happened, it might look different; we get confused and fuzzy Picture Quote #1

My husband’s a man’s man, and he does guy films, and there’s rarely any female parts in them, period, but we have some projects that are for me that we hope to do in the near future Picture Quote #1

Films with female protagonists don’t attract many eyeballs. Most of them are perceived as feminist films. If Bollywood starts giving women major roles in entertaining movies, then the audience, too, will open up to the idea of watching commercial films in which the actresses do more than just play the role of the hero’s love interest Picture Quote #1

Go out and make something that reflects your interests, your taste, and your ideas. No one will pay you to make something until you have a few things you can show that you’ve directed. I got my start by making short films on my own Picture Quote #1

I’ve made seventeen or eighteen films now, only two of which have been original screenplays, all the others have been based on short stories or novels, and I find the long short story ideal for adaptation Picture Quote #1

And it’s not only films, I’m pretty unaware of anything that’s going on in popular culture right now Picture Quote #1

Our literary culture is marinated in deep traditions of the fantastic and the supernatural, and we export those rich qualities in films and books on a spectacular industrial scale Picture Quote #1

I kind of worry about that a little bit - we lost our film culture for 30 years because the Americans came in and bought up all the cinema chains and wouldn’t show any Australian films Picture Quote #1

Unless it’s something very clever like ‘Memento,’ most independent films have a very tough life out there Picture Quote #1

I love film, and I think it’s so important for kids to be educated about films and real life subjects that films cover Picture Quote #1

But you can still find good films if you read your local film critics and are willing to drive a bit. You have to be a proactive film viewer to have the most provocative cinema life Picture Quote #1

I don’t think violence on film breeds violence in life. Violence in life breeds violence in films Picture Quote #1

Films for TV have to be much closer to the book, mainly because the objective with a TV movie that translates literature is to get the audience, after seeing this version, to pick up the book and read it themselves. My attitude is that TV can never really be any form of art, because it serves audience expectations Picture Quote #1

I’m not making films for critics, I’m making films for people to go out and enjoy Picture Quote #1

I’m so happy with ‘Grease’ and ‘Xanadu,’ particularly because of the music in both films Picture Quote #1

I really started watching films when I was 14. As I became a teenager, there was nothing that really interested me apart from music, books and films Picture Quote #1

I can’t really say that film music inspired me; it is more the films themselves, in connection with the music Picture Quote #1

I’ve studied film a lot, so I know much more about film than music, but I don’t think I could have made films Picture Quote #1

A lot of people want to make films and do photography and things, but I’m quite happy doing what I’m doing Picture Quote #1

When we started in the early 60s, football had a little bit of a tradition. But, they didn’t have a mythology. And NFL Films, through our music and our scripts and our photography, created a mythology for the sport Picture Quote #1

With a play, you do it and it’s gone. Films always date. Television drama always dates. Television comedy, for some reason, seems to go on Picture Quote #1

I don’t watch a great deal of television because I don’t have a television, and I don’t have a huge catalog of films that I’ve watched, either Picture Quote #1

I did enjoy theater. I actually do prefer making films and television, but it was a learning experience for me, because I got into television at 5 and film at 11, and theater was something I completely bypassed Picture Quote #1

TV and films are same for me. I took a decision to be an actor, and I am an actor. I never decided to be TV actor or film actor Picture Quote #1

I think when I got drawn to film, I didn’t know it was a business. I mean, like most filmmakers, I probably saw more films than a lot of people when I was a kid. But I watched them on TV as well. I was no purist about it. I spent lots of time in movie theaters, but I also watched a lot of films on TV Picture Quote #1
