Films Quotes

I remember loving ‘Braveheart,’ and I still do! It was one of those films my family had on video and we watched over and over again Picture Quote #1

In my films that I’ve directed, and my work in commercials and videos, I’ve rarely used handheld. It’s just not something I’m drawn to, but I’ve seen it done very well Picture Quote #1

I took a film course in grade ten that made me want to direct, and I’ve always been making short films and home videos with my friends, so it’s definitely something I wanna pursue as well Picture Quote #1

When I was younger, me and my brother got a video camera, and he used to direct and I used to act. We used to make these silly, stupid short films, which, looking back now, were probably horrible Picture Quote #1

I was one of those avid moviegoers as a kid, and we didn’t have video, so we went to see everything five times. I went to see every foreign film playing in my town. As times went on, I watched a lot less films. I have a different film school now. My film school now is my life experience Picture Quote #1

I resisted the film business as long as I could, because of the big circus act and the amount of money that it costs to make films - I saw my father suffer through that Picture Quote #1

The censorship is such on television in the U.S. that films like mine don’t stand a chance Picture Quote #1

Right now I think censorship is necessary; the things they’re doing and saying in films right now just shouldn’t be allowed. There’s no dignity anymore and I think that’s very important Picture Quote #1

The Central Propaganda Department is the highest-ranking censorship agency in China. And it has control over everything from the appointment of newspaper editors to university professors to the way that films are cut and distributed Picture Quote #1

If I’d lived like my characters, I would have been dead before I’d made 16 films Picture Quote #1

One of my favourite films is called ‘Lacombe Lucien,’ directed by Louis Malle. The lead character in that film, like the lead characters in many 70s and 80s films, has a moral ambiguity to him Picture Quote #1

Film and novel characters are often stereotyped, but racial stereotyping in many novels or films creates and encourages labelling, discrimination and racism. ~Angelica Hopes Picture Quote #1

I’ve seen composers work on 30 films at one go. So, eight or even 10 albums in a year is no big deal Picture Quote #1

All I wanted to do was be a professional film director with a body of work, and you’re going to make some good films, some bad and some indifferent. You don’t set out to make a dog, you set out to make something good. But I like them all Picture Quote #1

I think I’m drawn to films more as a director with a directorial mind even as an actor. I make movies to make the films, not to act Picture Quote #1

It always surprises me when I see the director’s versions of films released separately, long after the film’s theatrical run Picture Quote #1

I’m an unusual director in that my cut is usually shorter then the final released film. I like short films Picture Quote #1

I once gave a talk at a girls’ school and, once I’d finished, 29 out of the 30 girls wanted to be film directors. I think that’s where we need to get girls interested in making films. We need to give them the idea that they can, that it’s one of the things on their horizon Picture Quote #1

I’ve been writing for years and developing my own films and editing with a friend of mine in Australia Picture Quote #1

I didn’t have the welfare. I didn’t have the proper education. I didn’t have these things. That’s why it’s almost like a complex in me that I want to explode myself in my films Picture Quote #1

I don’t really expect much from my life. So when I heard my films are premiering in film festival circuits I was glad of course but I thought it was lucky accident Picture Quote #1

The frustrating part of it is that you’re generally known for what you did last. I’ve had the privilege of doing some very cool independent films that, a lot of the time, the general public doesn’t see unless you’re at a film festival or you’re into that kind of movie Picture Quote #1

I watch many, many, many independent films every year that you see once in a film festival and they’re never heard of ever again. Many of them are very, very good Picture Quote #1

It’s a reality of film festivals that you can’t see everything. You’re dividing your time between seeing films and utilizing that unique space to have meetings with people that you can’t otherwise Picture Quote #1

Film festivals are a great vehicle for gaining an audience for your film, for exposure for the talent in the film and for the film makers to leverage opportunities for their films. I love the energy that film festivals bring Picture Quote #1

Nowadays, a critic has to watch 700, 800 films a year, and I know through experience, being a juror in prestigious film festivals where supposedly the best films are arriving, from twenty films maybe you see two that are good, one that is so-so, and one that is extraordinary. And the other sixteen are terrible Picture Quote #1

If you get to bring a little movie on the festival circuit, it’s a nice experience because you get to see it with an audience. People who go to festivals to watch films are usually a little more eager to enjoy them. It’s exciting because it’s like you’re going to the film’s opening night at every festival Picture Quote #1

My films are completely new. I am not similar to anybody in the history of movies Picture Quote #1

I’m something of a history buff. It’s deliberate that a lot of my films have been period pieces Picture Quote #1

You give your film away to the audience once it’s done. I never look at my films after the premier. The film needs to start its own history Picture Quote #1
