Michael Mann Quotes

I’ve never made any film that I wouldn’t go back and re-edit Picture Quote #1

Dillinger at one point was the second most popular man in America after President Roosevelt. And he was a national hero for a good reason. He was robbing the very institutions, the banks, which had afflicted the people for four years, and after four years nothing was getting any better Picture Quote #1

We bring our preparation to the table, and opportunity may present itself, and if you are well prepared, you can seize opportunity and then maybe something good happens, and you call that luck Picture Quote #1

Blu-ray and the technologies emerging around it are the premiere format for reproducing what we do as filmmakers. There’s more space on the disc, more bit rate Picture Quote #1

Everything we do on ‘Luck’ is absolutely no different than if we’d had been doing it in a feature film. There’s no short cuts. The specificity of what every single line might mean. Everything Dustin Hoffman does. Kevin Dunn is as authentic in the last scene of the last episode as he is in the first scene of the first episode Picture Quote #1

I don’t story board. I do something else, which is, I block it. We then train to the blocking. In other words, when everybody’s training, they’re actually training a lot of the moves that we are definitely going to use, and then, I do a lot of photography of that, and that becomes where the cameras go Picture Quote #1

I relate more to the fact that 80-inch plasma has just started to become ubiquitous and in people’s homes the fairly decent 5.1 sound system and the big screen isn’t that out of reach Picture Quote #1

The best-kept secret about Don Johnson is the fact that he is a terrific actor Picture Quote #1

To just tell a story from beginning, middle and end doesn’t motivate me that much Picture Quote #1

There’s people who live life authentically and there’s people who live a life of fabrication. And it begins with the question of how you’re gonna do your time. And these are observations I made about Folsom when I was there with Dustin Hoffman when he was directing ‘Straight Time.’ Picture Quote #1

I think the resolution involved in the high-def, Blu-ray image demands we pay attention to every detail to a level we’ve never seen before. The audiences have to believe everything they’re seeing. As viewers, we’re all so experienced and so much smarter than we realize. With Blu-ray, there will be less tricking of the eye Picture Quote #1

As filmmakers, we want the audience to have the most complete experience they can. For example, I interviewed Stanley Kubrick years ago around the time of 2001: A Space Odyssey.’ I was going to see the film that night in London, and he insisted I sit in one of four seats in the theater for the best view or not watch the film Picture Quote #1

I think it’s easy for directors to stay fresh more than actors, especially once an actor becomes a star. It’s hard for Russell Crowe to walk down a street or take a subway. I can fly coach Picture Quote #1

Could I have worked under a system where there were Draconian controls on my creativity, meaning budget, time, script choices, etc.? Definitely not. I would have fared poorly under the old studio system that guys like Howard Hawks did so well in. I cannot Picture Quote #1

Miami is one of these great places that is a really sensual, physically beautiful place Picture Quote #1

Michael Mann’s always been one of my heroes Picture Quote #1

I’m always 100% committed to a character, a story and a director, and with Michael Mann it was 1,000%. I don’t know how to explain this Picture Quote #1
