Movies Quotes

I can no more reread my own books than I can watch old home movies or look at snapshots of myself as a child. I wind up sitting on the floor, paralyzed by grief and nostalgia Picture Quote #1

Movie studios are owned by giant corporations. They care about money; they don’t care about movies Picture Quote #1

Well, it’s so cheesy to say but you can’t find a comedy director who makes movies for critics. When a movie does $580 million worldwide, I’m not saying that proves anything except people were enjoying the experience Picture Quote #1

I watch movies all the time, so it’s hard to pick certain specific directors that have inspired me in the aggregate Picture Quote #1

Other people have worked with big studios and maintained control over their movies. I see no reason why it wouldn’t work for me Picture Quote #1

I suppose some studio executive would say it’s death for a comedy if people aren’t all laughing in the same places, but I find with my movies that people laugh in very different places. I can’t control it Picture Quote #1

I don’t love horror movies with something surreal happening. That doesn’t work for me. What’s terrifying is something that could actually happen to me and what I would do. I don’t know how to throw a punch, and I’ve never had to do it Picture Quote #1

The movies are fun, but I’m a novelist. In many ways, screenwriting is much easier than writing novels. I find screenplays twenty times easier to write than a novel Picture Quote #1

Every time I stand in front of mirror, I found my face too ugly, so I thought I have to get the role in some movies which cover my face with make up Picture Quote #1

I believe that we have a responsibility to make culture available for all people, not only those who can afford to go to the movies Picture Quote #1

I never have an alter ego in the movies. That’s a fiction that the press has made up over the years, and it’s fun to write that. It gives them something to write Picture Quote #1

I just want to do movies, and I want to sell them. I don’t want to link up with some product Picture Quote #1

Books are almost always better than the movies made from them, because there are things books do well and things movies do well, but usually those things don’t overlap: the same with comics and animation Picture Quote #1

My first three movies, I didn’t start editing until we were finished shooting. That’s unthinkable to me now Picture Quote #1

I stopped reading reviews about my own movies. I read stuff about other people’s movies Picture Quote #1

Sometimes people say oh you did one of my favorite movies and I will ask them what the other one is and it’s always something that I totally hate Picture Quote #1

Mental hospitals are great for horror movies because they’re already scary even without the horror or supernatural elements. This is a place where you can play with the ideas of one’s sanity, what’s real and what’s not Picture Quote #1

I’ve seen some movies where people improvise and will say some bizarre phrase they had heard the other day, and unless it’s coming directly from character and the moment they’re experiencing and driving the movie forward, then it’s always welcome Picture Quote #1

To me it’s a mystery that you can show the horrific things in the movies, but not some sexual stuff which everyone does Picture Quote #1

There’s always been violence in movies, and there will always be violence in movies. Whether it lends to the one psychotic that’s out there, thinking the worst thoughts you could possibly thing, is always going to be a mystery Picture Quote #1

I think action movies on the whole have moved more and more into large spectacle, even leaving out super hero movies that seem to me to be more a fantastic science fiction than they are action movies Picture Quote #1

All movies on some level can aspire to be more than just whatever the label is of the movie Picture Quote #1

I got a little tired of movies where I had to shoot people. I got to thinking about the power of film and what that power is. The power is in fact that it really can change people’s minds Picture Quote #1

I don’t like to eat in movies. I don’t like props. Some people have always got to have a thing and they’re doing this or doing that. I hate it. I just want to talk or fight. Or both! Picture Quote #1

I don’t like watching myself in the movies because I don’t like being aware of the product. I like the process. I enjoy that Picture Quote #1

If a director, I believe, has vision and knows so clearly what they want, then you can have a film that can perform. Whereas you can have done 50 movies, but if you’re unsure this time, your movie may not turn out Picture Quote #1

I loved movies. They inspired me more than anything growing up and wanted to do for others what those movies have done for me. I do a lot of other creative stuff but am not very good at it Picture Quote #1

What’s hard in movies is to have a consistent tone throughout a movie. Whatever that is Picture Quote #1

Maybe one way I am original is that at heart I really am a classical actor. I haven’t had my chance yet in the commercial world to show that. Movies aren’t really made about classical people so much any more Picture Quote #1

I don’t think actors are to blame for poor writing. The culture changes first, and the theater follows it. In the case of the movies, it’s the same thing Picture Quote #1
