Tilda Swinton Quotes

Sexuality is, of course, a great way of having a conversation between people Picture Quote #1

It’s exotic for me to be given a script that’s already written, and be given a pay cheque, and asked to dress up and play, and that’s all Picture Quote #1

There’s no need there to sit with the filmmaker for 11 years to develop the script, or go round the world raising money Picture Quote #1

Eleven years is a great length of time to prepare a movie, it would be wonderful to have 11 years of funded preparation Picture Quote #1

What very often happens when people make films about rich people, the camera is quite mesmerised by the opulence and quite theatrical in fact Picture Quote #1

Nic’s Charlie is something very particular. You can’t really put them together. It’s a phantasm Picture Quote #1

What he’s done is recognise the cinematic nature of the book. It’s beautifully realised - it’s a beat film Picture Quote #1

I was always, and I still am to a certain extent, one of those lazy people who spends a lot of time with Italian friends and yet constantly says I don’t speak Italian. Things slow down when I start speaking Italian Picture Quote #1

The work is different in the sense that I haven’t had to travel round the world raising money, or work from the genesis of the project. But the collaboration feels clear always, it’s sort of my drug, I’m in it for the conversation. The conversation’s the most important part of it Picture Quote #1

We must hang on to the idea that we can actually change things. That’s the sort of environment that Joe finds himself in, in Young Adam Picture Quote #1

I think there’s a dishonorable tradition in Hollywood to give the idea, particularly to children, that evil characters are dark Picture Quote #1

We were very clear that this film’s [Young Adam] so much about a relationship that’s borne out through the sexual contact, and that that’s the way they communicate Picture Quote #1

We talked [with Scott Derrickson] about making it kind of muscular and practical. Yeah it’s a fantasy but what’s the difference between fantasy and reality really? Picture Quote #1

The last time I did anything like this [special powers] was with the Narnia film with two swords, the same but different Picture Quote #1

We’re living in a new Beat time, in my view. And it’s very difficult for us to hang on Picture Quote #1

I am the only living person in the English speaking world who didn’t have the Narnia books as a child Picture Quote #1

When I’m in northern Italy, I walk about feeling slightly less of a freak Picture Quote #1

Archetypes are always [in my film-making]. It’s sometimes interesting to just flip them a little bit and see the underside Picture Quote #1

George [Clooney] and I do have the aim one day to be in a film where we say one nice thing to each other. Hopefully one day Picture Quote #1

I was not, and am not, officially a producer of that film [I am love] but the work of what a producer does I learned at that stage and to a certain extent I’ve been a producer ever since Picture Quote #1

I would say that I think the film [I am love] is absolutely about nature, it recommends human nature. You don’t need to recommend change, that’s inevitable, it’s the only reliable thing we have Picture Quote #1

It was just me, naked as underneath my clothes right now, as all of you are Picture Quote #1

I think there’s a dishonorable tradition in Hollywood to give the idea, particularly to children, that evil characters are dark Picture Quote #1

Maybe it was my revenge on people who had been unkind to me as a child. But it was very easy and a thrill to freeze up children Picture Quote #1

I am the only living person in the English speaking world who didn’t have the Narnia books as a child Picture Quote #1

It may be unfair of me but I do feel I know it Picture Quote #1
