Jimmy Stewart Quotes

The last episode of Dallas was in 1991.’ Unfortunately, it was a terrible episode to end the show on: it was a sort of ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ with Larry as the Jimmy Stewart character. In that episode, I was an ineffectual-schlep kind of brother, who got divorced three or four times and was a Las Vegas reject Picture Quote #1

For some reason, the movies in the 40s have the best personalities: Jimmy Stewart, Gary Cooper, Betty Grable, Gene Tierney, and all those people. For some reason, I seem to gravitate more toward the 40s, and I don’t necessarily know why. I just love the people Picture Quote #1

I saw Ben Stiller’s movie Walter Mitty [2013]; it’s very beautiful. You look at some of the movies John Ford did with John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart, and then look at Remington and Ansel Adams, and I think you see a connection, certainly in the imagery of the West Picture Quote #1

I remember so vividly playing a scene with Jimmy Stewart. I was in the back of a covered wagon, and we were doing this little talk in the wilderness. They did his close-up first. I was looking at him and thinking, ‘How does he do that?’ He is not ‘doing’ anything, and yet everything is there Picture Quote #1

But, let’s not pretend that he’s something that he’s not. He’s just like George Clooney. He’s a very radical leftist Picture Quote #1

Inevitably people will get tired of me. People get tired of everyone except Jimmy Stewart. I’m not saying Jimmy Stewart would get tired of me, I’m just saying people will never get tired of Jimmy Stewart Picture Quote #1

I think I land somewhere between Scorsese and Capra in what I’m drawn to emotionally; I’m drawn to very intense emotion. Capra freaked people out when they saw Jimmy Stewart lose it in ‘It’s a Wonderful Life Picture Quote #1

Filibusters have proliferated because under current rules just one or two determined senators can stop the Senate from functioning. Today, the mere threat of a filibuster is enough to stop a vote; senators are rarely asked to pull all-nighters like Jimmy Stewart in ‘Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.’ Picture Quote #1

I’ve always admired Gene Hackman, Jack Lemmon, Jimmy Stewart, Gregory Peck. I’m showing my age here Picture Quote #1

Jimmy Stewart said he stopped making movies because he didn’t like the way he looked on screen anymore. I’m more the guy who says I look like hell but I’m going to see where it gets me Picture Quote #1

Jimmy Stewart could have been a good golfer, but he speaks so slowly that by the time he yells ‘Fore!’ the guy he’s hit is already in an ambulance on the way to the hospital Picture Quote #1

I’ve worked with Jack Warner and Jimmy Stewart - and Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, and Johnny Depp twice. I’ve had dinners with Fred Astaire and Cary Grant Picture Quote #1

Hollywood dishes out too much praise for small things I won’t let it get me, but too much praise can turn a fellow’s head if he doesn’t watch his step Picture Quote #1
